Lk Don T. Howell shorebirds 7/31/02



>From about 5:15 to 5:45 today, Eric Harrold, Steve Mumford, and I birded the 
end of Lake Don T Howell at Shimpock Rd.
Quite a few birds out on the flats, but it was tough to get angles on them. 
This is definitely the best time of day lighting wise to head out there 
though. 
Birds found included:
Greater Yellowlegs-2
Lesser Yellowlegs-1
Least Sandpiper-7
Pectoral Sandpiper-22
Spotted Sandpiper-1
Kildeer-14
Great Egret-11
Great Blue Heron-6
Green Heron-2
Mute Swan-1
Osprey-one bird was out on a sandbar
Indigo Bunting 
Blue Grosbeak
