Shorebird numbers are continuing to build.  Short-billed Dowitcher migration should peak here in about a week, with birds spread out through the numerous marshes from Martinique Beach to Cole Harbour.  I saw the following this week-end on shorebird surveys:

Three Fathom Harbour, Saturday, July 12:

Black-bellied Plover    4
Semipalmated Plover    25
Killdeer                       2
Greater Yellowlegs        6
Willet                        44
Lesser Yellowlegs       109
Semipalmated Sandpiper    12
Least Sandpiper            2
White-rumped Sandpiper    1
Short-billed Dowitcher        1090

Cole Harbour Saltmarsh Trail, Sunday, July 13:

Black-bellied Plover    11
Semipalmated Plover    15
Greater Yellowlegs        19
Willet                        41
Lesser Yellowlegs       7
Semipalmated Sandpiper    60
Least Sandpiper            3
Short-billed Dowitcher        1470
