bump

Can't believe it have been this long since I've been here.
Brought wife to see the harlequins.
Sorta dissapointed there were no scoters. Got to see our first razorbill, but it was juvy, and not to appealling.
Last time met a lovely couple from Michigan, this time some fine folks from Montreal. This is one of those places, that people make the trek for a single species.


The bycatch first. Winter plummage not so great for some avian subjects.

Best Loon pic of the day



Lesser Scaup female



Old Squaw him/her



Ruddy Turnstone





Histrionicus histrionicus
She is such a flirt...

Thank you very much

Sorry I can't show the Northern Lapwings that have been around New Jersey for a while. They are extremely rare for our area.
But they flew the coup before we arrived...
