Hello,

I went to Stevens County today looking for shorebirds, Found a few - 1 each of everything: Wilson's Snipe. Long billed Dowitcher, and Pectoral Sandpiper were found at Colville Flats. Solitary Sandpiper and Least Sandpiper were in a small pond near valley. Three Spotted Sandpipers and an attending Merlin were at the Valley STP.

My best birds of the day were two Great Egrets (county lifer) feediing in the Columibia River near an island about a mile south of Gifford Ferry. There were 10 Horned Grebes in the area.

On my way home, I stopped by Reardan Audubon Lake in Lincoln County where I found a Greater Yellowlegs, 3 Lesser Yellowlegs, a Solitary Sandpiper, and four Black Necked Stilts.

Blessings
