I was at the Massapequa Preserve for about an hour Sunday
and saw the continuing grey morph Screech Owl but the red morph must’ve been
tucked away. After today, I’m no longer going to report the Screech Owls
– they’ve been at the Preserve for 2 years (released from a rehab) and have
made it their home. There was a group of American Wigeons that frequent the game fields - I've seen them a few times drinking from the puddle in the nearby "lot". I didn’t see the Wilson’s Snipe, but it’s a hit or
miss thing.
I also stopped at Wertheim’s National Refuge in Shirley but
didn’t see anything unusual: Red Tailed Hawk, Green Winged Teal and Hooded
Mergansers were most notable.
