Tweeters,

An alternate-plumaged RED KNOT, an eastside rarity, was found this
afternoon on the Walla Walla River delta feeding with Long-billed
Dowitchers. It was found at 3:15 and observed until 4:30pm.

Other birds included Lesser Yellowlegs, Western, Least, and Baird's
Sandpipers, Forster's Tern, White Pelican. I spoke with Mike Denny this
morning who reported two SANDERLING, likewise eastside rarities, on the
delta also. I was unable to relocate the sanderlings this afternoon.
