Following the excitement of the
Gray Headed Gull at
Coney Island Beach I decided to bird out in Nassau and Suffolk county for the next few days. Working several sites, my highlights were a
Marbled Godwit,
Whimbrels,
Manx Shearwater,
Black Terns, lots of
Royal Terns and killer views of a
Clapper Rail. The
Clapper Rail was a special sight as the bird preened and sunned in plain view and allowed me to watch and photograph it without trying to hide. Here are some photos.
