GSBAS First Fall Nature Walk Sept. 06, 2016

Today our walk was scheduled for Heckscher State park. We met in the field 5 parking lot and proceeded west into the marsh and woods from there. The birding was slow and the mosquitoes were heavy so we shifted to the parking field 7.

Things got immediately better. We spotted a pair of Royal terns on the beach, just off the parking lot. Without getting out of the cars we all had good, if not great looks at the terns.


After that we parked and walked to field 8 , and at field beach side we saw Black-bellied Plovers, and Sanderlings. We started slow and finished well. Then the rains came and we called it a day.
