Just a note regarding Plumb Beach by Sheepshead Bay. Some tweets came about of Piping Plover ( 3 seen) today. Be aware that PB is officially closed (see signs ) by the US Army Corp engineers. A birder there was told to leave and future encroachers may be subjected to arrest or fined. There is an erosion project till end of the year. see the story
