GSBAS Tuesday Nature Walk 05/28/2019

Our walk today was at Shinnecock Inlet and Dune Rd. We start at the inlet observing the sea birds and ducks and shorebirds . There was a large flock of Common Eider just outside the inlet. This is unusaual as they should have left by now. Still nice to see though.


The we proceeded on our caravan to the multiple stops along Dune rd. We had a very nice mix of shorebirds and some nice surprises as well. Still nesting Ospreys were all along the road. We had a nice flyby Black Skimmer and some Least Terns. Overall we had ten species of shorebirds. Our total species count for the day was 34, a nice morning of birding
