thursday Lake Bylessby: Hundreds of smaller shorebirds. No Avocets or other unusual shorebirds. Eight species ID'd including at least 120 Dunlin, perhaps the most numerous species. Others included Semi-palmated Plover and SB Dowitcher (>12). Also present over 200 Pelicans and 4 Caspian Terns and a least one Common tern.
Empire area: Not much suitable habitat for shorebirds, but that should change with today's rain. Steve Weston on Quigley Lake in Eagan swest...@comcast.net
