For World Shorebird Day, we visited 3 locations to participate in this day
to celebrate and point attention to shorebirds. Numbers submitted via
ebird.
Semipalmated Plover - 1 Redmond
Killdeer - 3 Hatfield, 22 Redmond, 2 Tumalo Res
American Avocet - 1 Hatfield
Spotted Sandpiper, 1 Redmond, 9 Tumalo Res
Solitary Sandpiper - 2 Redmond
Greater Yellowlegs - 2 Hatfield, 3 Redmond
Lesser Yellowlegs - 4 Redmond
Semipalmated Sandpiper - 1 Redmond
Western Sandpiper - 14 Hatfield, 2 Redmond
Least Sandpiper - 3 Hatfield, 3 Redmond
Wilson's snipe - 3 Hatfield
Red-necked Phalaropes - 2 Hatfield, 8 Tumalo Res
We found zero Dowitchers or Wilson's Phalaropes! Other notables today,
Golden Eagle and Red-shouldered Hawk Tumalo Res, still a Yellow-headed
Blackbird at Hatfield, 2 Sora, 1 Virginia Rail. Had 3 buteo species at
Redmond around just 2 adjacent lengths of irrigation line, Ferruginous,
Swainson's and Red-tailed. One Western Kingbird seen over those fields to
the east. Willow Flycatcher at Lynx pond but no shorebirds in Redmond except
at main pond. Back sectioned area behind the gate is all essentially dry.
Warbler flocks here and there mult locations with 6 species noted, mostly
Yellow-rump, plenty of Orange-crowned etc. Huge numbers of Savannah Sparrows
today, just seemed to be dense everywhere there is low brush, weeds, low
vegetation. A nice day with friends Diane Kook, Peter Low and Lew Rems.
Good birding, judy, jmeredit@xxxxxxxxxxx
