Jeff Dillon and I hit the Big Eddy area at Sauvie this morning. One Sabine's
Gull, 3 black-bellied plovers and a snowy egret on the way in. I stoped by
Coon Point and as reported the water is now too high for all but the longest
legged shorbirds. I did have two Sabine's gulls fly past heading south and
there were at least six terns feeding along the edge of the lake to the right.
I was able to identify a couple as common terns. Smith Lake was hopping with
many of the regular shorebirds already reported. Jim, Beverly and I had two
Franklin's gulls, three red-necked phalaropes more than a dozen black-bellied
plovers and many leasts, Western and pectoral sandpipers, both yellowlegs and
semipalmated plovers. Probably a couple hundred dowitchers and pipits all
over. No blasting while I was there.
