a link to some pics: http://www.bigbendnature.com/2013/09/fade-to-black-migration-continues.html A few days back we had a Forster's Tern also visit the Marathon Treatment Ponds (PRIVATE PROPERTY) Western and Least Sandpipers continue at that location, as well as intermittent single Baird's Sandpipers. Besides the resident "Mexican" Mallards, dabblers these last few days and weeks include Northern Shoveler, scores of Cinnamon Teal, a few Blue-winged and occasional Green-winged Teal. cheers, Matt York Marathon, Brewster Co. -- www.bigbendnature.com Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at //www.freelists.org/list/texbirds Reposting of traffic from TEXBIRDS is prohibited without seeking permission from the List Owner
