After a pretty dismal walk on the trails, the raft of ducks was too close to 
pass up.  While scoping scaup, redheads, buffleheads, and at least 29 horned 
grebes I panned to the north and the small mudflat.  Among the coots and 
shovelers were 20 avocets- 3 Forster's terns as well.  This will go down as a 
new county bird.

Bob D. always told me to keep checking that mudflat.  I usually strike out- not 
today.
