Leader: Peter Dorosh 347-622-3559 (text only)
Focus: Ducks, Gulls, waterfowl species, and occasional songbird or shorebird here and there.
Itinerary: We will cover Sheepshead Bay and Manhattan Beach; then two options depending on the latest bird reports: one, finish at Plumb Beach a mile east; or 2) west along Brighton Beach to Coney Island. Depending on time, we may visit Coney Island Creek last.
Notes: Expect a good amount of walking, approximately 7 miles; bring a scope if you have one. The nearest train to the meeting spot is the Q line at Sheepshead Bay stop several blocks away. Bring lunch and dress warmly if necessary.
Note: Access is by public transportation or own vehicle; we will not be arranging car pools.
