went out there yesterday afternoon and the weather was great. lots of construction going on on the jetty piers, but nothing that affected the birds or the beach. a few ring-billed gulls, some laughing gulls, three of the tamest royal terns i ever met. i had long conversations with one of them!! full frame head images at 300mm. one sanderling and 12-20 ruddy turnstones that are usually accountable to that location. the low tide seemed to hold them in the area. they started getting spread out as the tide came in. there are some pelicans in that area that have some great breeding colors right now. if you catch someone cleaning fish in the park they will flock for the scraps!!
the east coast seems to take a bad wrap with shorebirds. there are a few around and if anyone else has any locations please chime in!!!
