Twenty of us met at Lynde Shores CA on a sunny holiday weekend Sunday morning. The weather was, perhaps, too good with no hoped for cold front that would start some southbound migration.
We drove to Halls Road to access Cranberry Marsh for a few hours before heading to Darlington PP to finish the outing. Highlights as follows: Cranberry – Pied-billed Grebe, Green Heron, Black-crowned Night Heron, Common Gallinule, Common Tern Darlington – Yellow Warbler, American Redstart, Black-billed Cuckoo, Piping Plover, Least Sandpiper We tallied 48 species (possibly undercounted because it’s hard to keep the list when you don’t see or hear the bird yourself). The best birds (my opinion) were the family of Common Gallinules and the Piping Plovers.
