There are a number of lesser black back gulls in Greenwich, Kings  
County and they seem to be regular to the same location. On Sunday 20  
September Harold Forsyth and I saw four in adult plumage on the  
harrowed field immediately northeast of the railroad crossing on Rte.  
358 as you travel toward Canning. I have been aware of them for about  
a week now. This field hosted yesterday a few ring billed gulls, lots  
of herring gulls, one kumliens iceland gull, and not one greater  
black backed gull!
Today at least two were present.


Canard pond yesterday was great for waterfowl!
mallards
black duck
blue wing teal
green wing teal
american widgeon
pintail
shoveler
and a flock of canada geese landed as we were watching the ducks!

On the Sheffield Research Farm pond, west of Blueberry Acres there  
were four wood ducks.
