Three stilt sandpipers at Sweetwater Reservoir
Three stilt sandpipers at Sweetwater Reservoir
By – 7:43 am
There are three stilt sandpipers at the top end of Sweetwater Reservoir with dowitchers at 7:40 a.m. on Monday, along with two pectorals, and a yellow-headed blackbird in the Red Winged Blackbird flock near the parking lot. Given that the reservoir will be closed until next Friday if anybody wants to get here immediately while the lighting is still good, I’ll stick around a while, but not forever.As usual, a very good scope and some familiarity with shorebirds is required given the distances involved.Paul Lehman, San DiegoSent from the all new AOL app for Android
