Plum Island Bird List  Check out Tom Wetmore's Plum Island Sightings Page for daily updates on the PI birding scene. When I first started posting my Plum Island bird sightings on the web, there was nobody else doing it. That was so long ago that generations of piping plovers have come and gone. These days so many other birders do Plum Island bird lists on a daily basis that there's not much point in keeping this page updated. I finally stopped publishing my Plum Island year list in the fall of 2002. I haven't stopped birding nor have I stopped volunteering at the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge. 2002 Year List for Plum Island, Massachusetts Species Date American black duck 01/01/02 Canada goose 01/01/02 herring gull 01/01/02 snow goose 01/01/02 common eider 01/01/02 great black back gull 01/01/02 American crow 02/02/02 northern pintail 03/02/02 mute swan 03/02/02 northern gannet 04/06/02 northern mockingbird 04/06/02 American robin 04/06/02 mallard 04/06/02 kestrel 04/06/02 purple finch 04/06/02 bufflehead 04/06/02 northern harrier 04/06/02 lesser yellowlegs 05/04/02 killdeer 05/04/02 tree swallow 05/04/02 mourning dove 05/04/02 wild turkey 05/04/02 double crested cormorant 05/04/02 snowy egret 05/04/02 redwinged blackbird 05/04/02 American tree sparrow 05/04/02 great egret 05/04/02 black-throated green warbler 05/05/02 osprey 05/05/02 willet 05/11/02 brownheaded cowbird 05/11/02 eastern kingbird 05/24/02 bobolink 05/24/02 yellow warbler 05/24/02 northern cardinal 05/24/02 eastern phoebe 05/24/02 yellow rumped warbler 05/24/02 magnolia warbler 05/24/02 common yellowthroat 05/24/02 American redstart 05/24/02 gray catbird 06/01/02 common tern 06/08/02 semipalmated sandpiper 06/08/02 least tern 06/08/02 brown thrasher 06/08/02 cedar waxwing 06/08/02 blue jay 06/08/02 purple martin 06/08/02 starling 07/13/02 common grackle 07/13/02 glossy ibis 07/13/02 Forster's tern 07/13/02 short billed dowitcher 07/13/02 American goldfinch 07/13/02 song sparrow 07/13/02 piping plover 07/13/02 greater yellowlegs 07/13/02 semipalmated plover 07/13/02 gadwall 07/13/02 least sandpiper 07/13/02 Wilson's phalarope 09/01/02 downy woodpecker 09/02/02 black-capped chickadee 09/04/02 lark sparrow 09/05/02
