Tweeters,



I also birded the Semiahmoo resort area on Saturday afternoon amidst nice warm weather and sunbreaks/showers.



I missed the Golden Plover that was found by David. Also did not find any Red Knots as reported by Joel from a couple days ago. However, still present were thousands of BLACK-BELLIED PLOVER, two SEMIPALMATED PLOVER, 40-50 WESTERN SANDPIPER, 3-4 (at least) SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHER, several DUNLIN, several KILLDEER, and one MARBLED GODWIT.



Additionally, I had 3 fly over COMMON TERNS over the Semiahmoo Marina as well as a EURASIAN-COLLARED DOVE which was on a phone wire along Birch Bay Drive.
