Today, Sept. 30, last day to visit west side units on Sauvie Island Wildlife
Area. Clarice Johnson and I tried The Narrows first but Sturgeon Lake was
nearly empty of water. Apparently a combo of lowered Columbia River and low
tide. The Wash had more action. Dwight, et al. told us Common Tern was in the
area. Couple of hours later flew right to us for great looks. Franklin's Gull
was resting on mudflat. Wink's youthful Snow Goose was wandering around on dry
mud. Three Marbled Godwits were afar. Black-bellied Plovers, peeps & yellowlegs
all stayed distant. Nice day to end a great month out there...
