There were three of us that made the trip to the famed Black Dirt region of Orange County, New York yesterday. We had as our goals spotting the reported Cattle Egret and Blue Grosbeaks and as many shorebirds as could be found in the flooded environs. We were there for the birds!

I was glad I had my spotting scope with me and that I had practice spotting ‘Buffies’ from hours of searching sod fields in Long Island and New Jersey. –and, after much looking, Buff-breasted Sandpipers. I love Roseate Spoonbills, so I loved the Rookery at Smith Oaks, it’s as simple as that.

Evening Grosbeaks are large, stunning birds, especially the males, with their distinct plumage and massive bills; I haven’t been fortunate enough to see any of the Evening Grosbeaks that have made their way south to NYC and New Jersey (yet), so I’m very happy I was able to spend time with these beauties this summer. Another sparrow!
