Hello Ryan and Tweeters.
Took a trip to Lacy CLEAR-CUT.Basically for the Dragonflies. I did not see
any more there as we already reported.I did find a male CALIFORNIA DARNER.
I also made a side trip to Black Lake Meadows, where i spent some time to
find the second Solitary Sandpiper, but i found only ONE.No new Birds
beside the Solitary Sandpiper. I had a large flock of 12 Goldfinches and
12 Least Sandpiper with 3 Western.
