10,000 Birds

MARCH 8, 2018

I hope everyone participated in at least one day of the four day Great Backyard Bird Count of 2018. There were Black Phoebes hawking insects around the ponds … Ruby-crowned Kinglets foraging in the trees… and a male Bushtit collecting nesting material. Fun birding!

Arctic Tern : There were multiple records of this species in June of 2018 out at Breezy Point and they just weren’t around when I was out there. There was one at Breezy Point in the summer of 2018 and another one showed up at Jamaica Bay last summer. Yellow-headed Blackbird is a gorgeous bird with a horrible voice.
