Temp in the 50s, mostly sunny, S wind 10-20 mph<\/p>\n
We new it would be hard to top yesterday’s sightings–and we didn’t…<\/p>\n
Our wake-up call this morning was a 4-point-something aftershock.<\/p>\n
No new trip birds. Nothing of interest to photograph.<\/p>\n
At Clam Lagoon, I walked out to the peninsula. A plover-sized shorebird flushed way ahead of me and disappeared around the point. It may have been the Mongolian. The only other shorebirds out there were two Rock Sandpipers.<\/p>\n
As I started back, Barb called to let me know she had five shorebirds again in the same spot as yesterday–3 Pectorals and 2 peeps (one larger than the other). It looked like the Temminck’s Stint was still here. But not to be.<\/p>\n
The larger peep was a Baird’s like yesterday, but the smaller one was a Western.<\/p>\n
That’s it! Nothing else to report. Waiting for the next weather system to bring new birds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
