The 2 Common Moorhens at Tanyard reported by Stan Arnold last month have 
multiplied.  This morning I saw 6 birds, 2 adults and 4 young.  One of the 
young was full-sized and stayed near one of the adults.  The other 3 young 
were very small and kept close to the second adult. 

The only shorebird was 1 Lesser Yellowlegs.  Also seen were 5 Forster's 
Terns and 2 Caspian Terns.
