Great Bay Blvd. WMA survey 9-18-07

This is odd for me to have to post that this is my 1st survey of the fall season, not to mention 1st survey of 2007 but I'll just add it was good to be back out again!

It was great weather on Tuesday, 70's, low humidity, sunny with some high clouds, strong ENE winds and the tide was high. I surveyed from approximately 12:30pm til 3:30pm.
Although I didn't see any large totals there was 1 group of 51 Lesser Yellowlegs across the street from Capt'n Mike's and a pair of LYL at another area. Also seen in various marsh areas were a total of 4 Black-bellied Plovers, 1 Least Sandpiper, 1 Semipalmated Plover and 1 American Oystercatcher. Other notables were plenty of Great and Snowy Egrets, 1 Tricolored Heron, 2 Great Blue Herons and 2 Ospreys.
