E-Z Birding, Tuesday, September 6th 2011

Despite a little rain and overcast skies, EZ Birding enjoyed a large group of terns on the beach including both Common and Forster's, Sandwich, and Royal terns.  A mixed flock in the wooded area produced Carolina Chickadees, Yellow and Pine Warblers, young American Robins, and a bunch of Eastern Kingbirds.
