Highlights = included 5 Northern Shovelers and an imm GREAT CORMORANT. There were 20 = peeps, msotly Leasts with a few Semis. The cormorant was on the log = closest to Tydings Island sitting with about 25 Double-cresteds. Typical = of Great sitting with DCs, it was on the highest perch on the log. The = light was terrific and the humidity low so we were able to admire the = bird at 100X in Richard's scope. Low tide tomorrow will be in the = evening, although there should be flats most of the afternoon if the = wind holds from the north. Eirik A.T.
