The early spring arrivals were busy today eating all the fish they could catch. The Great Egret of course going for much smaller sized meals than the big osprey - but with talons like those it makes catching fish much easier!

There were about 5 Great Egrets along Dune Rd. stalking the marshes and I look forward to seeing more wading birds, including Snowy Egrets and Yellow-Crowned Night Herons in the months to come.
If you want to learn more about these birds or where to find them on Long Island, order a copy of John Turner's Exploring the Other Island: A seasonal guide to nature on Long Island
