8220;I’ll want to hear, I eat stories like grapes”. Archive for September, 2008. September 25, 2008. The Abstinence Teacher was disappointing, which sucks because I was really looking forward to this book. It has all the workings of a great book – a single mom who teaches pro-birth control high school sex ed, and a cute ex-druggie, ex-rockstar born again Christian dude meet on an a suburban soccer field and its lust at first sight. It could have been so good! Posted in Tom Perrotta. September 18, 2008.

http://jerseybirder.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 01, 2015. January 1 - New Year Birding of Last Year's birds. Today we went out to Long Island, starting at Lido Beach where we saw a couple of hundred Common Eider, along with 5 Harlequin Ducks as the notable species. We next visited Jones Beach West End but found that to be quiet except for the waterfowl. We then went to see the rarities of Cassin's Kingbird at Floyd Bennet Field in Brooklyn, and made a stop for the Couch's Kingbird in Manhattan's West Village. Rarities - New Jersey.

Jersey Birder: July 18 - Mississippi Kite
http://jerseybirder.blogspot.com/2015/07/july-18-mississippi-kite.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. July 18 - Mississippi Kite. Today I had to cancel my plans with Bill because my father-in-law had some complications after his surgery of last week, so I had to go down south to the hospital. After the issues were cleared up I had some time to go another 30 miles south down to Waretown, NJ. Here a pair of Mississippi Kites have been reported for several weeks. Fortunately for me at least one of the kites was perched in the tree when I arrived around 12:30. July 26 - Forsythe NWR.

Jersey Birder: July 19 - Marsh Birds
http://jerseybirder.blogspot.com/2015/07/july-19-marsh-birds.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. July 19 - Marsh Birds. I woke up without plans and quickly decided to look for some marsh birds. I headed north to Sussex County and the Vernon Marsh. Here I took the walk along the railroad tracks for about 1 mile. Along the way I saw many species of freshwater marshes like the abundant Marsh Wren, Swamp Sparrows Red-Winged Blackbirds, Green Herons, Great-Blue Herons, Gray Catbirds, and Barn Swallows. Here is where I saw the bird. Here is where I stopped walking.

NJ Bird Photos: Birds of New Jersey. Tuesday, March 25, 2008. This large hawk flew in at dusk. We estimate he is about 30 inches, at least twice the size of the sharpshined hawks that are more common on the lake. We weren't able to identify what type of hawk he was. Maybe he's an eagle.

NJ Bird Photos: Birds of New Jersey. Sunday, June 17, 2012. Adios and Vaya con Dios. We are joyfully moving back to California at the end of the month and are busy preparing, so this is likely to be our last post (unless we see the flicker babies that the mother is caring for). The weather was nice yesterday so we had dinner outside, and we were happy that many of our bird friends came by as if to wish us farewell. We have started a new blog, California Birds. Labels: Black-crowned Night Heron. That soun...
