GSBAS Nature Walk 06/02/2015

Our Tuesday trip this week was to Shinnecock Inlet/Dune Rd, Westhampton. Despite miserable damp weather six birders showed up to brave the elements and do some birdwatching. We did well considering the light rain and cold and damp weather. We tallied over thirty species for the day. The main feature was shorebirds. We saw Piping Plover, Sanderling, Dunlin, Ruddy Turnstones, Dowitchers, Skimmers, Yellowlegs, Willets  Oystercatchers and Semi-palmated Sandpipers. Our next trip,
at Lakeland Park in Ronkonkoma, will be the last of this spring season
