There was a flock of 570 CANADA GEESE here, with one of them being of a large race different from the others present. It was slightly larger in size than most of them, with a longer neck, larger head, and more sloped forehead. The forehead was white and the white cheek patches were more extensive. In the afternoon I went to the Sunnyvale sewage ponds, where a BLACK TERN was foraging over the West Pond. I didn't see any brown tones in the upperparts and the underside was white. So I'm assuming that it was an adult in basic plumage, though the distance and lighting were tough obstacles to overcome. Walking out along the central channel I flushed a large flock of BLACK-NECKED STILTS from the levee that comprises the east side of the West Pond. Flushing with these birds was a WANDERING TATTLER, which flew all the way across the West Pond, where I eventually lost it as it was flying low over the water near the rocky edge of the levee there, at a point approximately even with the Lockheed Ponds. I assume that it landed somewhere in that vicinity. Michael Mammoser _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
