Carolinabirders,
I managed to find my way from the TN Cumberland Mts back to the NC coast
recently. I needed a coastal bird "fix" really bad. Sorry this is late,
but still wanted to post it.
On July 1st Jim and Laura O'Donnell and I had a very unusual high Summer
count of (58+) RUDDY DUCKS at the Jacksonville Water Treatment Plant
near Richlands.. There was also an Am. Coot present.
July 2nd at New River Inlet in Onslow County I counted 11 WILSON'S
PLOVERS, a high count for there for me. Several were young birds, so I am
assuming the nesting pairs there has continued to increase since I found
them nesting there 6 years ago..The Inlet marshes are still a great place
for up close looks at Seaside Sparrow.
On 7-4, I saw 2 LONG-BILLED CURLEW on Shackleford Banks near the
inlet on a mud flat.
On 7-5- A Carteret County bird for me in Straits was a REDDISH EGRET!!
Good birding to all my old friends!
