I took the challenge today of spotting on a warm day in the harsh light just to test my photographing and editing skills. My goal was to catch WN which I did. I was surprised to see 4/22 closed since winds were strong from the south. The day started off landing and departing 31 then switching to depart/circle to land 13. The day ended quickly as I looked to the south and dark clouds were approaching.

A great colorful addition to LGA and my first catch of a WN bird:
