shorebirds are picking up. Had a possible pac golden-plover at McCain's this morning. I was panning through some peeps and saw it standing alone. The group of peeps got up and I followed them then went back to the plover location and it was gone and I could not find it again! I suspect it to be a pac golden-plover because of size, head neck shape slender body posture and basic color. I will never really know.
I did have a solitary sandpiper and a semplalmated sandpiper.
Others include:
long-billed dowitcher 60
least sandpiper 10
western sandpiper 110
Wilson's phalarope 2
American avocet 1
black-necked stilt 41
