We chose the Battery Harris Platform at Fort Tilden, along the barrier beaches of the Rockaway Pensinsula in Queens, because it affords a great view of both the bay and the ocean, as well as a wide expanse of dune scrub habitat. But what, exactly, is a Big Sit? The hawk flight was not large but we did see quite a few species of raptors.
