My luck has definitely been on the up and up. First at Thomas Ponds
after spending a couple of days trying to photograph the semi-palmated
plover on Friday evening the bird walked right up in front of me and
ever more unbelievably stayed there fore a few minutes and even more
unbelievably the photos were in focus. Then at Montlake Fill my
perseverance in waiting for the first year spotted sandpiper to walk
past me on one of its many circumnavigations of the main pond finally
paid off.

Photos can be found at www.waders.org in the Recent Photos section.

I guess it is downhill all the way from now on.
