OK folks I couldn't stay home, had to go and check it out.
First of all water went up (some 3-15 feet less mudflats), second it
became to be muddy... I wasn't able to go as far as yesterday, some 20
feet short.
Well, anyway it was worthy. There are more birds in the front of the
bridge (17:30-18:30). Here you are some numbers:
Black-bellied Plover - 1 ad
Killdeer - 18
Semipalmated Pl. 12
Lesser Yellowlegs 32
Solitary Sandpiper 1
Stilt Sand. 12 juv. 4 ad.
Pectoral Sand. 53
Western Sand. 57 juv. 2 ad in winter plumage
Semipalmated Sand. 36 juv.
Least Sand 35 (mostly juv. could be some ad among
them)
Wilson's Phalarope 8 juv.
There is still more rain coming, I hope it will bring some birds, but it
will be very muddy...
Mike
