Fifth annual Kevin Karlson Shorebird Day was a big hit with dozens of birders who participated in the morning walks and afternoon talk and photography workshop.

A big thanks to Kevin Karlson and his ace photographer colleague Lloyd Spitalnik for a memorable day, and a big thanks to evreyone who participated in the day-long series of events.

We will post the full list of bird and butterfly species seen in the coming week.

The event was sponsored by the N.J. Meadowlands Commission and the Bergen County Audubon Society.
