10,000 Birds

This is a chance to recharge out batteries, spend a little quite time together and try to get in a whole bunch of birding done. This allows me to see frigates, boobies, terns and pelicans on the saltwater side. In the same day, just a few meters up the arroyo, there is a plethora of desert species.

The next one, the lagoon of Vatatsa (at the eastern side of the Valtos Bay), offered a lot more egrets, one Squacco Heron , two distant Dalmatian Pelicans and quite a few little things chirping from their hiding places in the tamarisk bushes by the road. I reach for my camera, only to realise that the batteries were flat.

At five-forty-five Sunday morning I started the eBird checklist while perched atop the Battery Harris Platform at Fort Tilden. As always, I was the first to the platform and in the light northwest wind and under a full moon I sipped my coffee and willed birds to make some noise so I could start checking off species.

And seeing as there were good northwest winds overnight, weather radar had shown lots of birds taking off, and the winds were expected to continue from the north through the morning, I decided that I would make my way to Fort Tilden at first light and install myself on the Battery Harris Platform. And this bird was way out over the water.
