It is so dry on the mud flats that I had to walk a long way to find birds
today. I had seen a sad sight from my dock and got as close as I could to see
the cause of death of one Great Blue Heron and one Great Egret. I'm afraid
to say they may have been shot. I can't imagine someone mistook them for
ducks.
On a lighter note a few shorebirds were enjoying the muddy edges.
Canada Goose- 50+
DC Cormorant
Great Blue Heron
Great Egret
Bald Eagle - 1 Adult
Killdeer - 75+
Sanderling - 4
Western Sandpiper - 2
Least Sandpiper - 42
