EZ Birding at Two Mile Beach Unit of US Fish & Wildlife enjoyed a good variety of raptors overhead including Bald Eagles, Peregrine Falcons, American Kestrel, Merlin, Norther Harrier, and Red-tailed, Cooper's, and Sharp-shinned Hawks. From the beach we had many shorebirds which included Ruddy Turnstones, Black-bellied Plover, Dunlin, and Sanderlings. Four Brown Pelicans and several large skeins of Double-crested Cormorants flew by. The Brown Booby was visible from the bay side of Ocean Drive.
