I put up a blog post with photos of the Black Terns and Royal Terns I found
yesterday in Hampton Bays along the shores of the Peconic Bay and the
Shinnecock Inlet. I had a photo of a Sandwhich Tern but seemed to have

The Point Lookout Sandwich Tern has been added to my storm page from
yesterday http://www.hmana.org/steve/Aug28.htm , along with something

The birding today was certainly not as exciting as yesterday in Irene's
wake, but all in all it was a very good day. I birded with Andrew Baksh and

John,
Don't feel too bad. Jean and I headed down to Jones beach after being
alerted to the goodies, and after dipping on the Caspian @ Flushing

Good morning all,
Doug Gochfeld, Sean Sime, Shane Blodgett, and I just had two Bridled Terns
moving south past veteran's memorial pier in Brooklyn. We've also seen two
Wilson's Storm-Petrels moving out of the bay and a large number of Laughing
Gulls.
Best,
Andrew
