Thanks Clyde for the report. Later after you had to leave we walked =
about the Johnson Pond area. We saw courting Common Terns and Roseate =
Terns and  the following shore birds:

1 Piping Plover
6 Black Bellied Plovers (some in full breeding plumage)

5 Semipalmated Sandpipers
1 Least Sandpiper
7+ Willets

The last new birds for the day were Gray Jays. We had a total of about =
70 birds for the day. Also of note was that a new area was discovered,  =
a part of the railroad trail that has not been upgraded,  where a =
Pied-billed Grebe was heard and a pair of Wood Ducks seen.
