This morning Carolyn Bullock, Linda Zempel and I ran the regular "Pits
". There were several hundred shore birds in breeding plumage. The
Dunlins, Stilt Sandpipers, White-rumped Sandpipers and Dowitchers were
beautiful. I cannot remember seeing 50+ Dunlins in breeding plumage
there before. There were two lagniappes: 5 fledged Shrikes huddled
together on a barbed wire fence being fed by two adults and, in
addition, a male Scissor-tailed Flycatcher feeding in the field below
the TVA levee.
