There was a stiff, steady 30mph breeze and intermittent misty
drizzle this afternoon during the high tide. I had hoped that
it might blow in some interesting nearshore sea birds, but it
didn't.

Shorebird flats -
Black-bellied Plover 25
Semipalmated Plover 6
Greater Yellowlegs 2
Long-billed Dowitcher 3
Pectoral Sandpiper 1
Western Sandpiper 12
Least Sandpiper 3
Dunlin 22

Parking lot D -
Black-bellied Plover 6
Western Sandpiper 8
Dunlin 10

The weather forecast claims things should be icky until tomorrow
afternoon.
