All,

This morning Frank Vanslager and I did some fairly unproductive birding, the 
pond at State & Spreckles (more RED-NECKED PHALAROPES, fewer WILSON'S 
PHALAROPES, lots of GREATER YELLOWLEGS, only one LESSER YELLOWLEGS) and the 
western edge (the railroad tracks) of New Chicago Marsh (four BURROWING OWLS, 
more "unmentionables").  The EEC was closed so we went to Charleston Slough 
(really low tide), lots of Dowitchers and AMERICAN WHITE PELICANS in Adobe 
Creek where a LEAST SANDPIPER gave us a start as it persistently showed lots 
of white on it's rump (despite it's apparent small size we watched the bird 
until we could verify a dark line running up the center of the rump).  We 
then went to Stevens Creek Mitigation Pond (the "usual suspects") and then to 
Crittenden Marsh (we knew it was too early tide wise) where it a small flock 
of Least Sandpipers included a SEMIPALMATED PLOVER (lots of those across the 
creek but it's size did get us going for a while).  Best birds were 8-10 
LEAST TERNS and a juvenile SPOTTED SANDPIPER in Salt Pond A2E.  Also enjoyed 
watching a Gull chasing a FORSTER'S TERN until it dropped a nice sized fish 
which the Gull caught in midair for a snack.  

Take care,
Bob Reiling, 4:28 PM, 8/8/02
