Sparrows, Shorebirds, Waterbirds and Pipits





I spent some time at the Muskegon County Wastewater this morning getting in a little birding.  In RI Cell B1 I found 12 White-crowned Sparrows.  In RI Cell D1 I found a flock of 31 Pectoral Sandpipers.  There were good numbers of American Pipits in the RI Cells.  Lots of Northern Shovelers and Ruddy Ducks in the big lagoons.

Nice photos, Charlie. Good illustration of the differences between adult and immature White-crowned Sparrows. There were lots of these also, both ages, at the Muskegon Lake Nature Preserve Sunday when Carol and I were there.
