New York City weather has been relentless rain with strong northeasterly winds over the last few days. Gray has been the dominant color!

However, it did bring in some interesting birds. On Governor’s Island at least five Forster’s Terns were seen in Buttermilk Channel. When I arrived they were mostly around the Lima Pier, fishing in the somewhat sheltered cove the pier makes.

Thank you to Mary Beth Kooper who sent out a Group Me alert.
