EZ Birding enjoyed beautiful weather and a variety of birds beginning with a Brown Pelican and ending with multiple Blue Grosbeaks. There were several Black Terns on Bunker Pond, Royal Terns overhead, one Caspian Tern flyover, and both Common and Forster's Terns on beach and pond. Large groups of Bobolinks flew over toward Delaware Bay throughout the walk. Leaders: Chuck & MJ Slugg, Janet Crawford, Lee Smythe, and Dave Lord.
