American Avocet at Bombay Hook NWR.

I heard that Bombay Hook had some good birds, so I tried it this morning. I found a few good ones, but not as many as I’d have liked. Still, it was worth the trip.

I expect Bombay Hook is going to get better and better for a while. We should be seeing more migrants soon, so I’m  not sure where I’ll be going.
