Point Lookout, Massapequa Preserve

 I went to Point Lookout/ Nickerson to try to find the Harlequin Ducks and Purple Sandpipers that are usually seen there.  I saw 3 Harlequins by the inlet (2 males, 1 female) and what I believe were 2 Purple Sandpipers flying by the shore.  I noted there were a good number of Red Throated Loons flying from the inlet to the ocean.  There were several Black Bellied Plovers in the parking lot.  I tried my luck at Massapqua Lake where I saw a bunch of Great Blue Herons on the island.  I went into the preserve a little bit and photographed a camera-willing Robin.
