Solitary Sandpiper, etc.
August 28th, 2011 by Oliver, Birding InternDate of sighting: August 25th
This is a bit of a belated post, but since there’s still a chance that it has lingered, I’ll throw it up.
A good birder and friend of mine by the name of Bob Battagin gave me a call at the Committee to report a single adult Solitary Sandpiper present at the southern most puddle at the June Lake Sewage Ponds. This bird continued through the 25th. Bob also later reported more Common and Black Terns from Rush Creek Delta as well as one Whimbrel. I myself had 6 BLTE on the 27th.
I have officially left the Basin for the season so this will be last report for 2011. Keep Mono Lake Birdy.
