01 July 2008:
I have read with interest the recent reports regarding Wood Thrush
numbers this summer/spring. I have no opinion on their numbers relative
to past years. However, I did drive to Briggs lake this AM to listen
and take a break. I heard 3 Wood Thrushes while there. Also heard
were:
* Pileated Woodpecker
* Acadian Flycatcher
* Eastern Peewee
* Eastern Phoebe
* Red-eyed Vireo
* Yellow-throated Vireo
* Eastern Towhee
* American Goldfinch.
That concludes this (sort-of) report.

Subject: [birdky] SB Dowitcher & Sandpipers 6/30
Today at open pond in Fulton County the following were present.
Blue-winged Teal - 2
Great Blue Heron
Great Egret
Killdeer - many
Black-necked Stilt - 5 (I still have not seen any young but their
behavior continues to indicate nesting.)
Least Sandpiper - 2
White-rumped Sandpiper - 1 ph
Short-billed Dowitcher - 1 ph
Least Tern - they also continue to show nesting behavior. It is
unfortunate that the ponds are drying quickly now. I imagine a tractor
will be plowing it soon.
Bank Swallow - many with young
Cliff Swallow
Barn Swallow
birds of note at other locations:
American White Pelican
Bald Eagle - 2
Loggerhead Shrike - 1
Field Sparrow
Dickcissel - many singing
