Since I was in the area I decided to stop by Eide Road to see what
I could find. The ponds are drying up fast but there were still a few
shorebirds hanging around. Shorebirds seen included:
Pectoral Sandpiper - 1
Lesser Yellowlegs - 2
Long-billed Dowitchers - 7
Red-necked Phalarope - 2
Yesterday, at Discovery Park I had a Red-necked Grebe (in breeding
plumage) along the North Shore; and there was an Olive-sided
Flycatcher in the area of the chapel. Also, noted that the Mew Gulls
are back.
Cheers and Good Birding;
