[log in to unmask][log in to unmask], 23 Aug 2008 21:08:53 -0400458_US-ASCII This evening between 7:30 and sunset I stopped at Sandy Ridge. There was a male Northern Harrier swooping over the fields near the entrance and to the east of the park. Perhaps it will roost there tonight so it might be worth a look in the morning to see if it is still there.
When we arrived a young red tailed hawk was sitting on the light post next to the parking lot. This wooden post is no higher than 10 feet. [...]37_23Aug200821:08:[log in to unmask]
At 7:30 this morning the marbled godwit was still at Glacier Ridge Metro Park. Not many shorebirds were present (in fact they might have been outnumbered by the green herons) but it was well worth the drive. The bird stays very close to the boardwalk and most of the time I did not even need my scope to veiw this bird. Those who have yet to see it have a good chance today.
Good Birding!
