The last 2 days have been unsually cool for Long Island in August..but that has helped push through some early migrants. I was working in the office yesterday and there was a lot of sightings so I took advantage this morning since I was WFH and went to the preserve before work. It was hopping a lot with a lot of activity. I saw swifts and swallows, Red Eyed and a Warbling Vireo, Great Crested Flycatcher but the highlight was a lot of warblers: Magnolia, Black Throated Greens, Black and Whites, Common Yellowthroat, Yellow, Chestnut Sided, female Redstarts, a Parula, a Blackburnian and a surprise Canada Warbler and 1 or 2 Blue Winged Warblers (11 warbler species)
"I'm sharing my photos and stories of my bird watching adventures on Long Island. I also feature my sightings from around the USA and other countries when I travel. I hope you enjoy them." - Rob (from Massapequa)
