The work along DI causeway has produced a great new shorebird site. The completed impoundment just north of Jemisons as im watching has 370 semipalmated sandpipers, 6 stilt sands and one white-rumped. Nothing special you say, mud lakes has that. Yep. But I'm sitting im my car, the sun is behind me lighting the birds well, and those birds are 25 yards away. No scope required. Can't get a better opportunity for studying or just enjoying watching and listening to the constant chatter of the semipalms (a useful ID mark, BTW). And, if it gets hot just turn the car AC on. Shorebirding rarely gets so comfortable.
