Hi all, Just to let people know I saw 10 Black-bellied Whistling-Ducks and an immature Roseate Spoonbill in NJ this morning. I wonder if the ducks on LI are strays from this flock since these were only an hour or so away and have been there about a week or so. The ducks were in Monroe Twp. and the spoonbill was at Brigantine NWR. The ducks were seen as of about 5:30am and the spoonbill as of 8:40am. Also seen were several Clapper Rails, 3 Blue Grosbeaks, and 2 Whimbrels along with the usuals. Directions can be found on the NJ listserv or from me if interested. Andrew Andrew v. F.
