Temps in the 30s-40s, Overcast, rain with some snow mixed in, Wind E 15-40 mph

That is not a blue sky!! That’s cloud cover.

This is the weather you read about on Adak. and tomorrow might be worse!

Although I saw few birds today, I got some photos of previously reported species.

First was one of those Whimbrels that had been eluding me until yesterday.

And then my favorite shorebird — Terek Sandpiper!

With the strong east winds, pelagics were being blown in to shore. So several of the other birders set up sea-watches.

I spent a little time doing the same, but only found Short-tailed Shearwaters and Black-legged Kittiwakes. The kittiwakes were trip birds.

Sam Brayshaw found a Common Sandpiper today, but it was gone by the time others arrived to see it.

The trip list is at 79.

Note: This is higher than the below-listed eBird Trip Report, as I count Green-winged Teal and Common Teal as separate species…

I’ve had only 2 spring trips higher than this one. The highest was 81 in 2017.
