Whew! Gone for an hour after the Peregrine flushed it. Note: hot and lots of
heat haze in the middle of the day

Subject: [texbirds] Collared Plover - flushed; plus WARNING cotton field
spraying (8/4?)
Hi all
Passing on info -
Shortly after 12 noon a Peregrine Falcon blew through the playa and flushed
all
the shorebirds, the Collared Plover has not been seen since.
A farmer relayed to a local birder that the cotton field immediately adjacent
to
the playa is set to be sprayed before harvest as early as TOMORROW MORNING. No
one will be allowed near the viewing spot - the ONLY viewing spot - during the
spraying. Spraying requires light winds, no rain in the forecast, and other
specific conditions. Be advised that access to the only viewing spot may not
be
possible tomorrow morning! In theory the spraying should not take long but I
have no idea how long the area will be closed after the spraying is completed.
I have no way to obtain more information on the treatment. If you go tomorrow
and they are spraying please be patient.
