Hi Tweeters,

Yep, shorebirds continue at Shillapoo Lake in the Vancouver Lowlands of
southwest Clark County.  12 species this morning:

Semipalmated Plover - 2
Killdeer - 22
BAIRD'S SANDPIPER - 2 (my first ones for several years)
Least Sandpiper - 60
Semipalmated Sandpiper - 1
Western Sandpiper - 65 (the most I've seen in this county for a while)
Long-billed Dowitcher - 1
Wilson's Snipe - 2
Spotted Sandpiper - 1
Solitary Sandpiper - 1
Greater Yellowlegs - 5
Lesser Yellowlegs - 1

A single immature Bonaparte's Gull with still some brown on the nape was
fun to see.  165 American White Pelicans rounded out the show.
