Finally a morning with no rain. Sunny, but NE wind in the teens, and low 50s
temps.
With all foliage blowing around I opted not to chase warblers, rather looked
for shorebirds.
I hit in order: Muddy Slough, Wood Tract north, Shorebird Unit, Crenshaw Tract,
Horseshoe Road slough.
Big changes that the weather brought on.
Wood Tract north empty.
Dunlin have moved into Shorebird Unit.
