Glossy Ibis, Great Bay Blvd. |

My Bird A Day streak ended at 201 days--I could have stretched it a little, but I knew I'd never make it past this week when we'd be preoccupied. A couple of highlights for me were having a birder from Bergen County drive down on his way to the shore, just to hear the Whip-poor-will that was calling reliably in the early part of the month, and the visits we've been getting from a pair of tom turkeys every afternoon. When I walked out the side door and saw one just sitting on the lawn I thought that these guys were getting entirely too comfortable. We've named them Frick & Frack. Never did I think when we were living in Brooklyn that I'd ever be sitting on my patio, feet up, drinking a beer, watching turkeys peck at my lawn.
