All,
This morning after Kelly and I relocated the juvenile FRANKLIN'S GULL
on the levy between the east and west ponds at SWPCP. Also present
here were both WILSON'S and RED-NECKED PHALAROPES. An adult PEREGRINE
FALCON was perched on the power tower above the main lot and a
VIRGINIA RAIL in the reeds by the rotating radar station. A single
GREEN HERON was seen flying down the channel.
We also visited the EEC in Alviso where we observed a both GREATER
and LESSER YELLOWLEGS along the entrance road. A BLACK TERN was on
pond A16. It foraged over the water close to the large island where 2
BLACK SKIMMERS are nesting. There were both LONG and SHORT-BILLED
DOWITCHERS present among the Shorebird clusters on the boardwalk.
SEMIPALMATED PLOVER, LEAST and WESTERN SANDPIPERS were there as well.
We were not able to find the Pectoral Sandpiper reported earlier in
the morning.
