Karl Lukens et. al. report:
"CMBO Birding Cape May Point Walk. Good ducks, good raptors, good weather. The 2 drake Eurasian Wigeon and the drake Redhead were on Lighthouse Pond (east and west) this morning with many Am. Wigeon, Mallards, Shovelers, and a few Hooded Mergansers and Gadwall. The Black Scoters are close in around the point and giving their mournful call. Raptors were lead by 8 Red-tailed Hawks, a Red-shoulder, and a Sharp-shinned Hawk, with numerous Black and Turkey Vultures. Usual passerine subjects including good looks at Fox Sparrows. -Karl (Chuck, Mary Jane, Kathy, Roger, Steve, David, Tom)"
