Highlights from today's Montezuma trip included 2 American Golden Plovers, 2 Sanderlings, 2 Snipe and 2 Dunlin at the shorebird flats along the main pool drive. At Tschache pool playing a Chickadee mobbing tape in the east side scrub drew out 2 Orange-crowned Warblers and 1 Wilson's Warbler. From East Road overlooking Knox-Marcellus Marsh there were 8 Sandhill Cranes, 1 Black-crowned Night Heron, 6 Snow Geese,(including 2 Blue Morph) and 5 Black-bellied Plovers. The American Avocet could be seen at Puddler's Marsh. 2 Peregrine Falcons flushed the few shorebirds there and later were joined by a third swooping acrobatically through a cloud of Starlings in the distance.
