These rather shy birds are frequently seen for a moment or two at the Marine Nature Study Area in Oceanside, NY.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Both are nice images Morris.
And now for what could very well be a stupid question......what percentage of the birds you encounter are "tagged"? Is that the proper terminology for the metal band on the leg?
