November 14th: "BQ Wildcard"

Leaders Dennis Hrehowsik, Bobbi Manian
Cave Swallow at bottom

Eight birders set out on a windy day on a counter clockwise route
connecting several Brooklyn coastal
 birding spots. Without a doubt the
 highlight was eye level looks at cave 
swallow which was at least a county bird for everyone on trip and a lifer for many at 37th street jetty. 

Good
times,

Bobbi and Dennis
