There was one at Breezy Point in the summer of 2018 and another one showed up at Jamaica Bay last summer. I took a gamble and got the family out on a (socially-distanced) whale-watching boat on the 12th and was rewarded, finally, with my Queens Great Shearwater ! I really, really hope. Sandwich Tern : Why not? Two-for-two!

We had a family picnic at Fort Tilden less than two weeks after my last set of predictions and a single Purple Martin was flying low over the fields with Barn Swallows and Tree Swallows. Since then I have had a second Purple Martin at Jamaica Bay’s East Pond. Ruff – 02 Jul 2012 – One finally showed up in Queens.
