I went to Bottle Beach last night for a while to see what birds were there and saw the usual WESTERN SANDPIPERS, BLACK-BELLIED PLOVERS and other birds. What was a first for me there were a single MARBLED GODWIT and a BLACK TURNSTONE. I find it a little unusual habitat for turnstone.
I ran down to Tokeland in hopes of finding the BARED-TAILED GODWIT and wasn't disappointed.
Today I went to Ocean Shores to see shore birds might be around. There were a good number of PECTORAL SANDPIPERS and a few GREATER YELLOWLEGS at the game range. And one WANDERING TATTLER at the marina.
For the Vulture reports I had two kettles around McKleary yesterday each of about a dozen birds and a single birds at the game range.
