Sand Hollow Birds

["kevin wheeler" <turtleherder at hotmail dot com>]

Matthew Curtis and I ran out to find all the prize-winning birds that Larry 
and Rick reported from Sand Hollow Reservoir.  We particularly wanted to see 
the Snowy Plover, Sanderlings, and Bendires thrasher.  We saw none of the 
three.  We did see some good stuff, however, including three very 
pink-bellied Bonaparte's Gulls, a Willet, a Long-billed Curlew, about a 
dozen Western Sandpipers, a Greater Yellowlegs, Ring-billed Gulls, and a 
Common Loon.  We also saw a flock of large shorebirds (I thought marbled 
Godwit?), that flew off when a big SUV drove down right next to the shore 
before we could get close enought to scan it.
Still a nice birding evening.
Kevin
