Birding Prime Hook on New Years Eve

 Lots of good birds with a good friend we had not seen in about 4 years, Curt Davis.  We started at Fowler Beach and watched about 10,000 Snow Geese lift off between 8 and 9 am.  In part of that was an incoming flock of 10 Tundra Swans,  and 2 im. Bald Eagles. Then we moved on south for several great American Kestrel views.  Our final highlight was Prime Hook Beach Road where we max'd out our Bald Eagle count at 8, and had many waterfowl, mostly Black Ducks, Mallards and Pintails.  We concluded on the DE Bay seashore for some delightful close and trusting Sanderlings.  Pics are below.
