Sunset Birding at Stone Harbor Point - Tuesday, October 14th, 2014

It was another fun evening at Stone Harbor Point.  We had great looks at Lesser-black Backed Gulls and the opportunity to compare them to Herring and Ring-billed Gulls.  Shore birds were scarce, but we had a good variety including Red Knots, Dunlin, Short-billed Dowitcher and Black-bellied Plovers. Leaders: Warren Cairo, Gail Dwyer, Kathy Horn, Shaun Bamford and Nancy Watson.
