Hi all,
I revisited the lagoons this afternoon 3-4 pm - the Avocet was in
lagoon #3. Brett Woodman (Waterloo) had left me a message that he had over
25 Dowitcher sp. yesterday morning, I wanted to check for these and found 12
to-day - all Short-billed.
On the way out I also saw my first 'fall' Solitary Sandpiper and ~
10 Least S. and even more Spotted S. and Killdeer.
Waterfowl - 2 Ruddy Duck (M,F) , 2 Hooded Merganser, 5 green-winged
Teal and 1 male Ring-necked Duck + family groups of Wood Duck and Mallard.
Butterflies - ~ 25 Monarch, 3 Viceroy, 2 Black Swallowtail, lots of
Cabbage White and a few Sulphurs.
Cheers!
Maris
