Hi all --

Barry and friend Peter went to the Delaware Bay Thursday and found it much as
Joe Halpin did, however, they did find that Woodlawn Beach WMA -- especially
the large pool to the left of Rt. 9 which is usually deeply flooded, is
getting into excellent condition for shorebirds. They ran out of time to do
it all, but did have a couple of Wilson's Phalaropes. Several years ago, in
another drought, it became THE place, with Hudsonian Godwits, Ruff etc. so
be sure to check this place out as well. It is north of Bombay Hook, btw.
