Though the fields at Higbee Beach were a little quiet, the bay bustled with great activity. The biggest Northern Gannet flight of the year so far was taking place, accompanied by a good movement of Black and Surf Scoters. Though quiet, the fields held Eastern Phoebes, Blue-gray Gnatcatchers and singing Field Sparrows. Leaders: Mike Crewe, Chris Marks, Catherine Busch, and Michael McCabe.
