Hi All, There was an alternate-plumaged BLACK TERN off Read Sanctuary in Rye this morning around 10 AM. This species is rare on Long Island Sound, so it was a real treat.
Other sightings from this past weekend include a singing HOODED WARBLER at Burden Preserve in New Castle, where this species has been present for the past few summers, two WORM-EATING WARBLERS at Meyer Preserve (also in New Castle), and an AMERICAN WOODCOCK in Armonk.
