10,000 Birds

OCTOBER 15, 2018

I had high hopes for the 5th Annual Queens County Bird Club Big Sit this past Saturday at Fort Tilden.

I had set aside the morning of Sunday, June 10th to cross the San Francisco Peninsula to the Pacific Ocean town of Half Moon Bay, a mere 25 minute drive away, for a few hours of birding. Not only was I very, very wet, so were the birds that I saw. I’m fond of photos of birds in a visible mist or drizzle. I was wrong.

Fort Tilden was totally closed and the cop standing guard at the road to Breezy Point looked at me like I was crazy when I asked if there was any chance someone who wanted to watch birds could get to the barrier beaches anywhere west of Fort Tilden. Also, we saw a Blue Grosbeak , some Fox Sparrows , and both species of kinglets.
