Actually, they were concentrated around Adobe Creek, as most of Charleston Slough was mud (low tide). There were at least 300 AWPE's lazily loafing, preening, feeding, etc., with groups of 5 to 20 birds streamig in from the bay periodically. The view from the Charleston Slough trail was great. Also lots of assorted eclipse plumageducks, many SNOWY and GREAT EGRET's, and a few breeding plumage DBCO's. Alan W.

The area is far from the birds normal habitat, although they were in a rather overgrown and brushy garden. I have seen wrentits in the same general area some years ago at about this time of year. I suspect they are dispersing birds, perhaps this years juveniles. Anyone care to comment on this hypothesis? Good Birding, Screech. Paul L.
