Got down to Lower Klamath and Township late this afternoon. Finally found where they all were: Straits Drain unit east of the main road, and the cross road south of the bend. Two units on both sides of the cross road are flooded, but the north side had the shorebirds. 

The highlight was a RED KNOT and about 5 SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHERs
