Thurs Aug 6;
High Tide (2.00 p.m.)
Windsor Sewage Ponds , Hants Co. 2.20p.m.
64+ Blk-bellied Plovers
1 Lsr Yellowlegs
1 Gtr Yellowlegs
1 Ruddy Turnstone
'Eastern tip'- The Guzzle, Long Is., Grand Pre, Kings Co.
3 hrs after High Tide: ~9500 'peeps' in two flocks. One flock of ~7000 were
along the beach to the west about halfway from The Guzzle to the cottages.
The closer flock (2500) held mostly Semip. Sandpipers but about 5% of the
flock consisted of Semip. Plovers, and I noted 2 Sanderlings and 10+
Wh-rumps also in the mix. No sign of any raptors.
Half an hour before high tide I had checked The Guzzle area hoping to find a
sizable 'roost' of shorebirds gathering amid the dozen or so bass anglers,
as they have in the past, but there were almost more anglers than
shorebirds!
Cheers,
Judy Tufts
