Eastern Long Island is an exceptional place to study bird migration, owing to its diversity of habitats and geographic position. This talk will survey some of the many places on eastern Long Island where migrating birds can be seen, with special attention devoted to visible fall migration and the relationship between migration and vagrancy. Bird migration occurs throughout the year on Long Island, and birders can deepen their appreciation of birds and their insights into avian ecology by looking for seasonal movements at unexpected times and in unexpected places.Lecture will be given by Prof. of Biology Shai Mitra.
