There's room at the Inn. We've got reservations at the Inn at Little Washington. I was told that gentlemen often choose to wear jackets, but there's no formal dress code. Fortunately, the party will not include any gentlemen. Ample slots were available for a 4-top on multiple nights. Economy? Upstaged by events Big Washington?

SANDERLING

WILSON'S

Why does Wilson’s Warbler insist on showing me its rear? Owl’s Head Park

And the first good bird of 2009 (well, it’s early.) Can you pick it out among 700 gulls?

GULLS

Look closer, middle back, bigger than Ring-billed, smaller than Herring, darker than either, but not quite as dark as Great Black-backed…

GULLS2

Maybe from this angle…

LBBG

Yes it’s a Lesser Black-backed Gull on the Lake in Prospect Park; a good rarity in the City (of course there are plenty in Buck’s County PA, but in bird watching everything is context.)
