I finally made it to the Newburgh Waterfront on Wednesday evening to see the Long-tailed Duck that&#8217;s been a around for a while. I also ran for the Lesser Black-backed Gull which was originally found by Jeanne Cimorelli on Friday and then relocated and reported by Bill Fierro yesterday afternoon. That gull stuck around for me, but was absolutely miles out, so no pics. Other than those two birds, it was the usual suspects (often less than that), but it was still an enjoyable long weekend with some interesting shots to share. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"819\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-1024x819.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-1024x819.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-768x614.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-1536x1229.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-2048x1638.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112521-EUST-1200x960.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>~European Starling at the Jersey Shore on Thanksgiving day, 2021.~ <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-2048x1280.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112821-RBGU-1200x750.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>~Ring-billed Gulls in the first snowfall of the season at the Beacon Waterfront, 11\/28\/21.~ <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112621-SACR-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>~Sandhill Crane flyover at Wallkill River NWR, 11\/26\/21.~ <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/112421-LTDU.jpg 1436w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>~Always a favorite of mine &#8211;
