There were 13 people on the Jones Beach trip.
Not sure if I missed anything but I believe we saw 62 species. There were 64 if
you include Golden Plover and Whimbrel which may have been seen by some members
of the group who arrived at the Coast Guard Station before us. Janet and Allan
were among those and can confirm.

Good group of about 13 people today.
We had a few good birds including several flycatchers sp, 16 species of warblers and some other stuff.
Best warblers were probably Tennessee pre Vale, fem Hooded on way out from Rick's place towards Nelly's lawn, and early Yellow-rump.
All buried by tons of American Redstarts.
Acadian, Least, Traill's sp, Pewee, Gr Crested, good for flycatchers...
