Mottled Duck returns

 The Mottled Duck from last spring at Ketcham's Creek, Amityville returned to the same spot, found by the original birder who found it.  The vegetation grew in a lot so there weren't many vantage points but I did get to see it well enough.

Sedge Wren: Crabmeadow Beach/ marsh

 Another birder found a Sedge Wren at his local patch in at Crab Meadow, as luck would have it, I was "passing through" the area the next day.  When I arrived, another birder told me it was right in front of him in the marsh plants. (I don't list other birder names on my blog unless I ask for their permission)  It took a little while but my lifer Sedge Wren came up long enough for some good looks.  The bird was right in front of me so I took a bunch of photos with my iphone but did get at least one with my camera!
