Shorebirds coming through: Brunswick

[Delia Guzman]

Hi everyone,

The fall migration was in full swing yesterday at Wharton Point. Had at least 60 black-bellied plovers, a dozen least sandpipers, and 1 laughing gull Saturday morning on the outgoing tide. Several great blue herons and snowy egrets, ring-billed and herring gulls, a least tern and several common terns, and a first-year bald eagle rounded out the situation in the mud flats exposed by the tide. Also had a fish crow and the usual double-crested cormorants as well as goldfinches, song and chipping sparrows, etc. 

Good birding!
