Then, right after Richard left, about two hours before high tide, with = the water level already high, I located the marbled godwit again in = pre-roosting mode with about 20 greater yellowlegs, along the RR tracks = on the se. shore. =20 Also seen in the harbour were 20 peeps, many of which were least = sandpipers, and, separately, a spotted sandpiper. Yesterday it was a northern harrier that flew over the harbour and = flushed the shorebirds; today it was a large sharp-shinned hawk.

In the grass near the bus-stop at the Acadia Arena, 2 small Calvatia? = giant puffballs (less than fist-sized).
