NO, I did not find the Marbled Godwit this morning.
I covered the main Horseshoe Road sloughs and the backside slough.
I kept my Great Egret number at 300, but there might have been 400. I made no
attempt the count. But there were more than yesterday.
Other highlights:
15 Snowy Egrets
1 oddball juv. Little Blue Heron
1 Rudy-throated Hummingbird (female), 1st I have seen that far out in the wide
open spaces.
