White-winged Dove at the Northwood Center - it missed the rarity round-up by several days unfortunately! [Photo by Mike Crewe]
This morning, some visitors to the Northwood Center asked if I knew of any Black Skimmers in the area which made me realise that it was getting very late for these birds and I hadn't seen one for a while. I suggested 2nd Avenue Jetty, along Beach Avenue, to them as a good place to check. At lunchtime I decided to follow up my own suggestion and I hope they got lucky, because there was a lone Black Skimmer - let's hope it heads off south to warmer climes soon!
