Ann Neville's computer crashed as she tried to send
report yesterday, so I'm filling in.
Of greatest interest are the
Snowy Plovers easily seen by walking straight out the dike
that once accessed the old Saltair (next to "Bare Bum Beach"). We counted
137 and all were well before we reached Lee Creek.
Near Lee Creek were 10 Baird's Sandpipers, 3
Semipalmated Sandpipers, 4 unidentified peeps.
Also saw 5000 Avocets and ~10,000 California Gulls
with a few hundred Franklin's Gulls.
Birders: Mike Schantz, Bob Huntington, Deedee
O'Brien, Ann Neville
