I wasn't out on any 'official' shorebird counting but had an
appointment near by Malibu Beach & decided to take a short walk along
the blvd (beacuse MB is a posted/restricted beach) & see what
birds were on the sod banks since it was low tide. I couldn't help but
notice that the OC end of MB had plenty of people & dogs... I'm
guessing this area has been given to them? Anyway, lots of
Semipalmated sandpipers (SPS) (100's), Ruddy T's & Semipalmated
Plovers mixed in the groups of SPS, a few Black-bellied Plovers & 1
Amr. Oystercatcher. I didn't have a scope with me so I wasn't able to
scan the group for other species.

Piping plover pairs thrive, but not in N.J.
