Obolites, I birded Stewart Pond which held lots of Shovelers and Green Winged 
Teal but no shorebirds. Fern Ridge Res. had lots of Pintails, GW Teal, coots 
and Mallards, but no shorebirds. Best bird was a Peregrine perched in a tree 
east of the observation deck . Tree Swallows and Marsh wrens were plentiful. I 
finally found shorebirds at the EWEB operations center on Roosevelt. There was 
a Floyd of 100+ Dunlin in a wetlands near the truck entrance south of the main 
parking lot. One of the Dunlin was coming into breeding plumage. I talked with 
Chris who is their habitat enhancement specialist re their plans and this will 
become a great site in a few years. There is limited parking to the right or 
left of the gate. Bird on, Bob Bender , Eugene
