Townsends, Nashville Warblers

[Roostertael at aol dot com]

Hi,

Thanks to the Summerfelds for the heads up on a Townsend's Warbler at Garr  
Ranch and to the several that mentioned the Nashville Warblers there. Got both  
     of them today. I get to check two off of my most wanted list already 
!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob Huntington, Bob McDougal and I went to AIC and Bear River today. Did not  
  see much at Bear River. We did see what must be a juvenile Swainson's Hawk 
that   was very red. Got our attention for a while. We got a couple of 
Solitary Sandpipers  at the marsh north of Willard Bay that is across from the pond. 

We looked through a lot of Black-bellied Plovers and had one that looked like 
an American Golden Plover, but before we could get the spotting scopes out a 
helicopter flew low over us and the little flock left. Must be a sign that we 
need         to go back.

The Whimbrel is still between mile 1 and 2. We also saw the all white small 
gull that the Summerfelds saw and got some photos of it. I haven't checked the 
pics yet though.
