Hi All: Marcia Whitmyre and myself spent 11/05 in Cape May and area. Parasitic Jaeger was a life bird for each of us, at the Avalon Sea Watch. Black and Surf Scoters streamed by quite steadily, and we had one flock of White-wing Scoters as well. Gannets seemed to be constantly in sight. I especially enjoyed the sightings as I was using my new scope ( what a difference )purchased the afternoon before at the Goshen location of the Cape May Bird Observatory. In the morning we had great looks at a Swainsons Hawk at the Hawk watch, life bird for me. Lily Pond hosted a Eurasion Wigeon, which we were able to find without too much trouble. No luck at finding the Harris sparrow, reported at a closeby feeder the day before. We stayed at the Madison Hotel, good rates, clean and attractive. To find an open restaurant this time of year proved to be quite a challenge. We ended up at the Lobster House- very good, but go to the coffee shop, same food, fraction of the price.
