Members of the Long Island Wildlife Photography group had a great week capped off with the first real snow of the season which made for a great backdrop for many of the shots.
Notable finds this week: Black-Headed Gull, Harlequin Duck, Long-tailed Duck, Red-Breasted Merganser, Hooded Merganser, Killdeer, First of Season Pine Siskin, late in season Greater & Lesser Yellowlegs, and the usual raptors.
This week’s cover goes to Trish Minogue Collins with a Great Egret in the snow.
