Dacus Bar, Ensley Bottoms
Shelby Co. TN
A before work trip to Mud Island produced only 2 Caspian Terns and a Ruddy
Turnstone on the sand bar that held so many birds just yesterday.
A lunch hour spent at Ensley was much better than yesterday's trip as the
Peregrine has left the building. Total Wind Bird species 15, with a single
basic plumaged Golden-Plover, a single Baird's flushed from the spread fields
and single Wilson's Phalaropes in different locations. Time prevented much
scanning in the fields so no Buff-breasted were located. Semi-Sand and
Western are few and far between with Pectoral numbers way down also. Good
numbers of both Lesser Yellowlegs and Stilt Sandpipers. Maybe this weather
will put something on the ground. Sure could use a Red Phalarope or a PURPLE
SANDPIPER ;o)
Good Birding!!!
