Location: Cape May County, NJ, US
Observation date: 2/12/11
Notes: The "Longtails in Love" field trip under the leadership of Chuck & MJ
Slugg, Patty Rourke, Carrie Bell, and Janet Crawford did find longtails as well
as a variety of other ducks as we made our way from Avalon to Cape May, checking
both ocean front and back bays. The weather was cooperative until we had wind
gusts that made it difficult to use either binoculars or scopes. At this point
we called it a day.
