On Saturday morning at high tide, there were also 2 rock sandpipers at the base of the Pt. Brown Jetty in addition to other numbers Charlie mentioned. The rock sandpipers were in a mixed flock of black turnstone and a single surfbird.

There are hundreds of scoters in the area of all three species, but the eider sticks out like mad. There were also 3 Long-tailed Ducks and a Harlequin Duck out in the bay, and 24 Greater White-fronted and one Snow Goose at the STP. At least 200 Black-legged Kittiwakes were visible from the base of the Point Brown Jetty.
