David Roemer and I started our day at Jonathan Creek and Blood River. We
later continued our birding at the dams. Smithland dam was the highlight
with one Lesser Black-backed gull and 2 First year Laughing Gulls. An Adult
Laughing Gull was seen sitting on the lock at KY Dam. The male
Scissor-tailed Flycatcher was on the wires at Barkley Dam.
Thirteen species of shorebirds were seen on the mud flats. The list
includes, Semipalmated Plover, Greater & LesserYellowlegs, Solitary, Spotted,
Semipalmated, Least, Baird's, Pectoral, Buff-breasted SP and Sanderling.
On my way home I stopped for a short walk on the mud flat at JC. Two Stilt
Sandpipers had dropped in. Hunters started arriving and we chatted a bit
about the upcoming season. My information had been incorrect. The early
Canada Goose season opened today not Wood Duck season. Sorry for the
misinformation.
