Title: S.C. Co. Bird List for July 2006

Bill Bousman writes:

The composite list increased by 3 birds in July.  Usually we find 6 new birds in July, so we didn't do well this month, although one of new birds was a first county record, so I guess that's something.  Thus, the 253 total as of 31 Jul is 4 short of our average.

The only 4 for the month was an adult SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPER found at the New Chicago Marsh on 16 Jul.  Within five days, at least two additional adults were found there.

No 5s, but two 6s in July.  The first was a single BLACK TURNSTONE on Salt Pond A16 on 15 Jul.  The next day, an adult LITTLE STINT was found in nearby New Chicago Marsh for a first county record and one of the few California records of this Siberian vagrant.  It was seen twice more by 20 Jul, but was quite elusive.
