I hope the data don't reflect a bad nesting season. I was surprised & pleased to find six SOSA at Little Lake, Greenfield, Kings, on July 30th. This was my one-day maximum ever and actually 50% of the all-time maximum in NS eBird records. On Aug 5 I thought "I'll go back and get a higher number". Hah. There was one bird there. They must move through very quickly (?). That location is a natural for SOSA. Regards, Rick Whitman On 11 August 2017 at 11:31, Keith Lowe <mythos25@live.com> wrote: > Interesting as always.
