Greater Yellowlegs and Least Sandpiper from the Meadowlands

Greater Yellowlegs



Least Sandpiper

We went bird watching at the Meadowlands Saturday AM. Here are some birds who were on the trail. We hope the name doesn't give the least sandpiper an inferiority complex.

Eastern Meadowlark at Brigantine

It's always a good birding day when you can add another bird to your life list. Today at Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge (aka Brigantine), Chris spotted a largish bird in a tree being harassed by some smaller birds. It turned out to be an eastern meadowlark. We stayed for a while and it flew and was joined by 3-4 others.
