No, not like the mud at Jamaica Bay, but still, this mud is pretty neat.

He's only been birding since 2005 but has garnered a respectable life list by birding whenever he wasn't working as a union representative or spending time with his family. He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy and Desmond Shearwater. His bird photographs have appeared on the Today Show, in Birding, Living Bird Magazine, Bird Watcher's Digest, and many other fine publications. He is also the author of the American Birding Association Field Guide to the Birds of New York.
The mud in Roebuck Bay-all 60,000 ha of it-has more than 200 different taxa (either species,families or larger taxonomic groupings) according to research done over the years. We also have some BIG mud-skippers and it’s rather muddy when you sink in about 2 foot! Shorebirds love it! 🙂
