An interesting side-note, the domestics appear to be almost exclusively of the WASP variety and tend to shun the attempts of nearly all potential suitors not of their flock.
Right you are, Joe - these are not natives but rather visitors from elsewhere along the flyway they travel - it starts in Bar Harbor and extends all the way to Bridgehampton -

I saw a gaggle of bed-thrashers yesterday in fact watering themselves with what appeared to be some very nice champagne.....it appears they're getting ready to leave for their winter quarters.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
