12:08pm start - water level below mid-level, with most mudflats visible
(11:04 low tide - 4.2ft; 17:58 high tide - 11.3ft)
12:40pm end

Tweeters,
Mostly slack water, gorgeous sunshine with some scattered clouds to the
west, and a slight northerly breeze at Turning Basin #3. At this time
of year, sunny days really put a glare on the water to the south at
noontime, which makes it difficult to spot birds along the south part
TB3 -- so who's complaining! Just another sunny day....

Birds seen during this scan include the following:
Domestic goose
Canada Goose (5)
Mallard (7)
Double-crested Cormorant (2)
Mew Gull
Glaucous-winged Gull (15)
Rock Pigeon (28)
American Crow (7)
European Starling (2)
Song Sparrow
House Finch (2)
House Sparrow (3)

May all your birds be identified,
