I frequently circumnavigate it but today only had time to go around the inlet half.
The last time I saw a lot of American Avocets they were on the dam end of the reservoir.
The Dowitcher count was way down from the last time I was there on 8-1-23.
I went looking for Semipalmated Plover and Sandpiper both Lifers for me and had to be home by 11 AM or my wife would have turned me into a pumpkin đ

I used a tip from Pat McGrane and walked the perimeter or I would have only had one Baird’s. The 17 were on the NW shore. One was on the muddy east side. I also had 3 Solitary Sands. Judy

I was there this morning 7:30 to 10:25 but saw no Baird’s. Only Sandpipers today for me were Solitary (E bird flagged the 3 I saw) , Spotted, Semipalmated, Western, Least. Had other projects as soon as I got home so I just now finished checking ID from my photos and posting my Ebird check list. Will not get all the photos culled and processed for e bird until tomorrow.ÂOn Aug 8, 2023, at 8:46 PM, jmeredit via groups.io <jmeredit@…> wrote:
I live in Oregon, so not aware of your usual numbers but a flock of 17 Baird’s Sandpipers seemed like a big number to me, at Blacks Creek. Had 12 species of shorebirds today, so fewer than a few days ago but nice birding.
