Wastewater Birds - Friday Evening

.
Friday night (August 20Nathan and I birded the Wastewater sighting 41 species. Species of interest to us included one Red-shouldered Hawk  flying on the north side of the east lagoon and a Northern Harrier, along with two Peregrine Falcons, which we observed from the south end of the center dike. In the southwest corner of the east lagoon there was one Eared Grebe, and adjacent to the Eared Grebe on the other side of the dike were two Pied-billed Grebes. Though no Ruddy Turnstones were found, we did locate one Short-billed Dowitcher, as well as a smattering of Baird's Sandpipers -- mostly on the north end of the center dike. 

Good Birding,
