There were 33 Whimbrels at Deer Lagoon on Whidbey Island this morning along
with a Marbled Godwit. The Whimbrels were a surprise as I thought they were
long gone by now, and it was the highest number of Whimbrels that I have
seen at that location. Naturally, the godwit was a surprise as well. They
were all feeding in the mud next to the water of a mostly empty Deer
Lagoon.

I went back this afternoon, hoping to get some photos that weren't backlit
like this morning's, and quickly found the godwit and 33 Whimbrels near the
west dike of the lagoon.
