Hi Everyone,

Just a quick note to report that the two Marbled Godwits were still present on Skimmer Island this evening.  Also, with a bit of luck and magnification, I was able to count 6 Sandwich Terns on the island.  There may have been a couple more even, but I could confirm these 6 by their pale-tipped black bills and their size (smaller than nearby Royal Terns and larger than nearby Common Terns).

Pretty fun when you can pick up two state birds on the "way home" from work!  Many thanks to Dave Powell for the discovery and George Jett for the report.

Have fun,
