Janey and I spent most of the day Saturday birding with Fulton Lavender. At
the Salt Marsh Trail there was a Hudsonian Godwit and Fulton heard a
Black-backed Woodpecker. There were hundreds of other shorebirds including
Greater Yellowlegs, Dunlin and Black-bellied Plover. There were also Common
and Hooded Mergansers, Black-headed and Bonaparte Gulls, Snow Buntings,
Lapland Longspurs plus lots of regular birds.

 

At Hartlen Point, there were Ipswich and Savannah Sparrows, Pectoral,
White-rumped and Semi Sandpipers plus Semi Plovers. We also saw the juvenile
Lesser Black-backed Gull that Fulton says hangs around the beach. A Horned
Lark flew over. We didn't go to back cove.

 

After Hartlen we made a quick stop at Sullivan's Pond and then headed to the
Portuguese Cove where we saw 4 Orange-crowned warblers.

 

We made a stop at Fred Greig's place and had a good look at the red-bellied
Woodpecker.

 

Late this afternoon, there was a Coot in First Lake, Lr. Sackville. It was
swimming around the area of the Kinsman beach.
