I took a lot of pix, none came out really sharp but here are the two best: http://www.geocities.com/tgrey41/PectoralSandpiper2.jpg http://www.geocities.com/tgrey41/PectoralSandpiper.jpg Before that I tried Stevens Creek from L'Avenida out to Crittenden. Nothing special. Quite a few YELLOW WARBLERS in the single tall eucalyptus, a spectacular territorial battle between two male KINGFISHERS right near the Avenida trailhead, I flushed a WILSON'S SNIPE in the creek also near the trail head, and further out flushed 2 PHEASANTS and a GREEN HERON. There were about 100 VIOLET-GREEN SWALLOWS staging on the second set of power lines. A couple of thousand shorebirds on the mostly dry lakebed at Crittenden, but I couldn't find anything more unusual among them than a couple of LESSER YELLOWLEGS. Many many juvenile WESTERNS.
