Unfortunately, all we found were 20+ Killdeer but there were shorebirds over the rise on the fields to the north and we couldn't tell what they were. Unfortunately didn't know about the pond where the reeves were -- oh well. (We had a great trip to Arizona, doing it top to bottom -- I got 8 new birds and Barry 7 -- best probably the pair of Rufous-capped Warblers in French Joe Canyon but the sight of seven (released) California Condors soaring by at eye level over the Grand Canyon 50 yards away was also pretty darned crippling! If anyone is planning a trip to AZ this summer/autumn, email me as I have some specific info on certain areas and birds). Cheers, Gail Mackiernan Colesville, MD gail@umdd.umd.edu (but not for long -- new email will be gail@mdsg.umd.edu) ======================================================================= To leave the MDOsprey list, send e-mail to listserv@home.ease.lsoft.com with the following message in line 1: signoff mdosprey ======================================================================= =========================================================================
