This morning's Cape May Point State Park walk yielded 4 Brown Pelicans far offshore, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo along the red trail between the bird blind and the first platform, and the usual good stuff like scoped immature male Orchard Oriole and Indigo Bunting. I thought I heard a Least Bittern, and may have, along the Red Trail, but was not certain. The full list, bittern-less, is below.
