Fort Fisher



A Moore County Bird Club trip to fort Fisher today lead by Scott Hartley
logged 70 species.  Most interesting was an American Avocet at the point
beyond the ferry dock.  A drake Redhead on the lake at Carolina Beach was
also rather surprising.  Great view of an adult Peregrine on a tower from
the ferry dock.  Hundreds of Gannets streaming south low over the water and
close to shore was an impressive sight.  Had a large flock of Black Scoters
and two female Surf Scoters heading south.
