It was a hot and humid evening at Stone Harbor Point, but a steady breeze made for an enjoyable evening of birding at Stone Harbor Point. High tide brought many birds in close for great looks at large flocks of Sanderlings with a couple still in breeding plumage. Highlights included close looks at a group Lesser Black-backed Gulls and a pair of Peregrine Falcons. Leaders: Warren Cairo, Gail Dwyer, Shaun Bamford, and Hugh Simmons.
