Birding Cape May Point - Saturday, March 10th, 2012

Cold and windy but some nice birds. Ducks were scarce but we managed Gadwall, Mallard, and American Wigeon with numerous Coots. Red-throated Loons and Northern Gannets were numerous at the Coral Ave. jetty area. Raptors included an immature Bald Eagle, 4 Red-tailed Hawks, 1 Red-shouldered Hawk, and a Sharp-shinned Hawk. Land birds included Hermit Thrush and 1 Eurasian Collared-Dove. Leaders: Karl Lukens, Chuck & Mary Jane Slugg, Kathy & Roger Horn, Steve Weis, and Warren Cairo.
