Hi everyone - I saw the 'usual' birds yesterday - i.e. the ones that have
been hanging around lately in the Leftwich Park playa.  The only change was
an unusual number of shovelers - usually there are four or so, yesterday
there were 12.  There were also 6 black necked stilts, a couple of avocets,
two yellowlegs and a couple of dowitchers.

During the winter there were a lot of widgeons, as many as 40.  Now there
are only a handful.

The playa looked like it gained a little water from the rain this past
weekend.
