I went to look at the Pacific golden-plover this morning, it is still there, but found a blue-gray gnatcatcher at the end of the large Oregon Ash grove just before you get to Rest Lake. The bird is hanging close to the top of the trees and I tried for photos but I do not feel I have one worth anything with poor light.

Also of interest 3 lesser yellowlegs in with the plover they were farther south. the Eurasian wigeon are still on Rest Lake as are two eared grebes 9 Bonaparte's gulls and a canvasback. I had a greater yellowlegs along the road as one drives south and well before the blind. Sorry no better way of describing the location.

I will check the pics AFTER I get back from the FREE fathers day lunch at the NW Fish Company on 10th Ave. Mouth is a watering!
