Check out this blog entry from Round Robin, Cornell Lab of Ornithology's blog. They have photos of the many birds found on the coast--some unspoiled by oil, and others painfully affected. Please do read their report and do look at the photos--they have photos of healthy birds as birds affected by the oil. If you are not familiar with some of the species and you haven't seen a skimmer before or sandwich terns, the photos capture the graceful beauty as well as the sad reality of oil that the birds must face.
