Or, Birdathon: the day after. Ben and I drove the Pedalpish route from yesterday's birdathon to count the miles (33 driving, so add on a few more miles for all the extra adventuring we did on the bikes). Of course, today there were Caspian terns at Hearding...
And then my bird of the day: Little Gull in 1st-winter plumage seen with a flock of a few hundred Bonaparte's in the harbor near the Sky Harbor airport parking lot on Park Point. Most of the gulls, Little included, were feeding right along the shore barely twenty feet away. 3:30-4:00 PM until most of the flock flew up towards Wisconsin and the fog rolled in. I'll post a link to photos as soon as we get them processed. Also, three Horned Grebes (were they missed on the birdathon? I can't remember now) at 21st Ave. E.
