- Comments: "My first ever here. Seen briefly but very well at South end of vegetable garden. Honking giant "warbler" with blazing yellow throat, bold white eyeliner and thick gently hooked bill. [Just looked and this is also the first eBird record ever for Red Hook, a sidebar that likely matters to absolutely nobody except me!]"

"The edge of the sea is a strange and beautiful place...To stand at the edge of the sea, to sense the ebb and flow of the tides, to feel the breath of a mist moving over a great salt marsh, to watch the flight of shore birds that have swept up and down the surf lines of the continents for untold thousands of years, to see the running of the old eels and the young shad to the sea, is to have knowledge of things that are as nearly eternal as any earthly life can be.
