Plum Island report

November 5, 2006 · Print This Article

My wife and I birded the Parker Island National Wildlife Refuge on Plum Island, Massachusetts today. Please stay tuned for a report and many pictures and videos in the next few days.

In the mean time, I leave you with a few teaser pictures from our trip. If anyone can identify the sparrow in the third picture, please email me or comment in this article. It will be greatly appreciated!

Happy birding!

A pair of Great Egrets take flight at the Parker Island National Wildlife Refuge. A Short Billed Dowitcher cruising in a salt panne. Unknown Sparrow. Do you know this species? Please reply.

    Here’s a good site to see photos of birds. I use it when I’m near a computer but not near a guide.

    Thank you for the comment. You bet I shot in RAW! But only low res pics going on the site from now on. Have a few thieves who wants to ruin it for everyone.
