Info Post
Following the excitement of the Gray Headed Gull at Coney Island Beach I decided to bird out in Nassau and Suffolk county for the next few days. Working several sites, my highlights were a Marbled Godwit, Whimbrels, Manx Shearwater, Black Terns, lots of Royal Terns and killer views of a Clapper Rail. The Clapper Rail was a special sight as the bird preened and sunned in plain view and allowed me to watch and photograph it without trying to hide.  Here are some photos.
