Avalon Seawatch - December 19, 2011
posted by Tom Reed | 7:33 PM
A generally slow day was punctuated by a few highlights at Avalon, among which were an Iceland Gull, two Humpback Whale spouts, and a pair of Red-necked Grebes. Duck diversity was fair, and included Common Goldeneye, Hooded Merganser and a hybrid Mallard/Black Duck.

The Seawatch ends on Thursday, but tomorrow will be my last day at the end of 7th Street. Here's hoping to a great last day!
