Sunday morning Walk to the point. Atrocious weather this morning it had rained all night and as I did this walk the waves were just crashing the rocks!Was afraid to walk this jut of land because at point the water was covering a whole section of it!Trudged on though and was rewarded with more Sanderling, two spotted sandpipers and a [FONT=courier new,monospace]Ruddy Turnstone.[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Two of the sanderling were still in breeding plumage unlike the many others I saw.Many sparrows were seen foraging here and on the lake were many Commom Terns feeding on the lake.Most be something about the weather and storm tossed fish? Noon-Foraging flock of birds,back lane. Counted 11 species of warblers at this time included new for the weekend[FONT=courier new,monospace] Wilson's Warbler [FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]and[FONT=courier new,monospace] Ovenbird.[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Other new species were [FONT=courier new,monospace]Grey Catbird,Red-breasted Nuthatch, White-throated Sparrow,Winter Wren,Ruby-crowned Kinglet,[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]nicely colored male purple finch and checking out those burs that get caught all over your clothes a[FONT=courier new,monospace] Ruby- throated Hummingbird.[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif] Sunday afternoon Bike trip to a sandbar. From the Wild Wings trail could see a sandbar across the lagoon near the channel that always held a lot of birds.Maybe something interesting!But when I crossed the bridge at the channel and walked up some dunes the sandbar had disappeared from yesterday!Did watch the kite boarders who I guess were loving the stiff winds off the lake,Hopefully the piping plover and sanderling on shore were not bothered by all this action.Rested on a picnic table near the boat rental place on the lagoon were I saw a [FONT=courier new,monospace]Pied-billed Grebe[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif] and 5 c.goldeneyes came off the shoreline.Also seen another species of warbler[FONT=courier new,monospace] Canada Warbler.[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif] Winter getting close seen [FONT=courier new,monospace]Dark-eyed Juncos[FONT=arial,helvetica,sans-serif] on the boardwalk behind the inn!
