Good morning Tweeters from Long Beach Peninsula -

Just looked out at the shore, just above the dunes and there are birds (which we also saw last evening in giant flock - hovering over the water) streaming north just over the water. There are thousands streaming by - this has been going on for the last five-ten minutes I happened to look out. Can't quite id them - peeps of some sort. Incredible. Any idea what/where they might be going? I'm so entrance I can't identify them. Is this a migration of some sort - north???

As of this posting they are still streaming. Any idea what

By the way - it's a spectacular morning here. The dunes look like they're right out of a Wyeth painting.

At sunset last nite at the beach the birds were hovering over the water, not coming to the beach (tide was out) . I expected them to come to the beach to roost but didn't see this happen.
