Hi Tweets,

The two juvenile American Golden-Plovers originally discovered on 10/3 were
still at Soap Lake East Beach this morning. I addition, there were three
Black-bellied Plovers. The Sharp-tailed Sandpiper was not located nor was
the jaeger or Sanderlings.
The Scissor-tailed Flycatcher was not located this morning while I was
there between 7:00 and 9:20. A storm front moved through last night with
rain and cold wind. Hopefully the bird has not departed, but we shall see.
The montane irruption seems to be slowing down in the Columbia Basin with
Red-breasted Nuthatches diminishing, and Mountain Chickadees not increasing.
Time will tell what will happen with this unusual event.

Cheers
