NJMC Naturalist Mike Newhouse reports seeing an American Avocet this morning in the second tidal impoundment at Harrier Meadow in North Arlington– a bit more distant than the one earlier this fall.

Harrier Meadow is closed to the public but NJMC staffer Jim Wright hopes to look for the bird during his lunch hour if anyone really needs to see this bird. No guarantee it will still be around.
