Hello All,
This morning early we were joined by Jim Nestler and Larry McClosky and
friend in a birding trip out to Tyson Ponds. Birds noted were........


Semipalmated Plover...2
Killdeer.......................49
Solitary Sandpiper........4
Least Sandpiper..........25
Western Sandpiper.......79
Spotted Sandpiper.........5
Black-necked Stilt..........9
Am. Avocet....................4
Long-billed Dowitcher....13
SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHER...1
Red-necked Phalarope....53
Wilson's Phalarope............3
Lesser Yellowlegs.............11
MARBLED GODWIT......1
Bairds Sandpiper...............14

WWR delta
Osprey...............................1
Am. White Pelican...............47
Forsters Tern.......................9

Not a bad morning considering that the water level on the Columbia has been
kept at very high pool for weeks. All for the weekend boaters. Wildlife
figures at a very low concern.
Later Mike
