At around noon today, I found a small flock of shorebirds on a wet field on Alta Ave., on the west side of the road, between 302nd St.W, and Cty 94 (Cannon River Blvd.) Recent rain has made this field hospitable to shorebirds again. There is vegetation growing on the mudflat, and most of the shorebirds were foraging amid the new growth. Hopefully, with new rain predicted tonight and tomorrow, it might attract other shorebirds. Lake Byllesby is still too high on the west side of the lake.
