A couple of shorebirds at Craney I failed to mention in my previous post: 8
Short-billed Dowitcher, 2 Long-billed Dowitcher (in flight giving their sharp
keek,keek calls), 30 Killdeer, 45 Semi-palmated Plover,3 Solitary Sandpiper,2
Spotted Sandpiper, and 8 Stilt Sandpipers.
Craney is definitely the premier shorbirding spot in VA at the moment and
deserves a lot of monitoring. If you can, get there often over the next few
weeks...who knows what goodies await us!
Good Birding,
