14 Nov 2008 - Cackling Goose near Riverhead

In Riverhead this afternoon, a CACKLING GOOSE (Richardson's) was with 200 or so Canada Geese in the fields between Horton and Roanoke Avenues just north of Reeves Avenue. At least 5 AMERICAN PIPIT were present also.

One CATTLE EGRET continues at the Mecox Bay Dairy in Bridgehampton. At Sag Mains, Sagaponack, a 2nd winter LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL and three Semipalmated Sandpipers (I couldn't turn them into Westerns) were present on the remaining sand flat with a single DUNLIN.
