FLOYD BENNETT FIELD JANUARY 20


Leader Chris Laskowski


Participants: Kathy W, Kathy T,Charle T, Bill W, Dave Q,Dale D,Alan B.

Hi Peter,

We had a great time today with some very nice weather for January.  It was a fun and helpful group as we had some newer birders along.  It wasn't super birdy but we did manage a few very good sightings,  among them were a Red-necked Grebe (spotted by Kathy Toomey); a drake White-winged Scoter, some very cooperative Horned Lark and 3 showy American Kestrels.

Thank you for putting it together and also a BIG THANK YOU to our drivers Kathy Willens and Bill Weisman.

Good birding everyone!

Chris
