Brig Stays Hot; Danny?

A brief Brig update:

The Roseate Spoonbill was visible in the northwest corner of the Danzenbaker (East) Pool this afternoon, and later flew over to the dog leg along the north dike. The Marbled Godwit was again present, this time along the south dike, just before the observation tower. Also reported at Brig today were 2 American Avocets, as well as Baird's Sandpiper and Hudsonian Godwit.

On the weather front, all eyes are again on the tropics, where yet another disturbance has developed near the Bahamas and could become a named storm in the next 48 hours. Its name would be Danny, and many forecasters are leaving open the possibility that this storm could make a run up the east coast during the end of the week. Now, if this actually happens, then a track that brings the storm inland/west of Cape May could potentially bring along a few interesting birds this weekend...but that's still a long way out. Stay tuned.
