On Wednesday, 9/4/02, while looking for (and not finding) a harbor 
seal in San Francisquito Creek reported by a runner, Deb Bartens 
and I spooked two SPOTTED SANDPIPERs from the banks. What was 
surprising was that this was during the high tide and there were no 
banks exposed that we could see in this area. The birds were in the 
creek near the intersection of the creek trail and the trail that runs 
between the athletic club and the golf course from the end of Geng 
Rd., which is a left turn off Embarcadero Rd. two stoplights north 
of Hwy 101 in Palo Alto. (Whew! This location description reminded 
me of Joe Morlan's precise directions on the old No. Calif. Rare Bird 
Line....)

Between 1:30 and 2:30 pm today, the STILT SANDPIPER and the RUFF were 
relocated, near Spreckels and State.  The PACIFIC GOLDEN-PLOVER was also 
relocated in the first marsh north of the railroad tracks, but it flushed 
and flew toward the pond at Spreckels and State.  Searches for the PECTORAL 
SANDPIPERs came up empty.  There were two other birders (sorry I didn't get 
names) present in addition to myself.
