The oystercatchers are fun to watch (and hard to photograph!). Â I almost always see them in pairs, and they have a distinct squawk as they fly overhead.

And, thank you for your continued interest and referrals!
For Avalon property owners with concerns about the restoration project at Armacost Park (71st to 74th Street between Dune and Ocean Drives), I suggest a walk around the perimeter, and along the designated paths at the Stone Harbor Bird Sanctuary (111th to 116th Street between Second and Third Avenues).
The Stone Harbor Bird Sanctuary remains an environmentally sound, and historic site. Â I believe the Borough of Avalon has a similar vision for Armacost Park.

Counting Down?
Only 40 days until Memorial Day weekend…
