[nysbirds-l] East Pond Shorebird report 8-5-16
An uptick in shorebirds on the pond was observed today. Most of the increase
were Semipalmated Sandpipers estimated at near 800.
Overall, the diversity remain low with 1 STILT SANDPIPER being the highlight.
The water level is definitely dropping again and we should have good shoreline
within a week or so.
As promised, I cleared paths on the overgrown south end and around Shriber's
Slew.
Juvenile shorebirds remain low with a few Lesser Yellowlegs and Least
Sandpipers present. Still looking for that massive push of shorebirds yet to
arrive on the pond.
Cheers,
