A beautiful calm day is attracted lots of people over to the island. Still 2.5 feet deep but many people are going over without waders of any kind. I saw 14 species of Shorebird, including the godwit and buff-breasted and a golden plover first thing. With all the people now some of the birds have flushed but have probably not gone far. The godwit is still showing well in the pond. If people stay to the gravel berms to view and not go into the vegetation side of the pond I think it will stay. Also a rumour that someone saw the yellow-headed blackbird but I did not.
