Raptor Observations: Extremely uneventful. A trickle of Sharp-shinned and little else. Non-raptor Observations: Two adult Lesser Black-backed Gulls dropped into Bunker pond and gave good comparisons with Great Black-backed Gulls. The Stilt Sandpiper from yesterday continued today as did the now resident Eurasian Wigeon. Predictions: Rain is in the forecast and it could be tough sledding out there. ======================================================================== Report submitted by Cameron Cox (Kumlieni@gmail.com) Cape May information may be found at: http://BirdCapeMay.org
