Not included here is my sighting of an assumed Marbled Godwit. ID by call and
size and shape. I never got a camera shot of it. It flushed before I realized
it was not a dowitcher or yellowlegs.
My camera was set for a small spot focus and I could not get a focus on it as
it flew away.
Great Egret numbers are really high. Especially compared to 75 on the 21st and
15 on the 20th. I estimate 300.
