Another Short Visit To Montrose Thursday 7-18-24

[Al Stokie]

Hello Bird People,

For the 3rd day this week I went early to Montrose. Today the wind was
hard out of the north but no rare shorebirds blew in with the wind.
Only had a very few shorebirds which were Killdeer (1),
Piping Plover (3:Imani, Sea Rocket & the remaining baby), Spotted
Sandpiper (1) & Least Sandpiper (1). Gulls were just the usual 2
species plus 11 Caspian Terns. Also did a brief walk through by the
Hedge but the only interesting bird was a resting Ruby Throated
Hummingbird.

Bird-Of-The-Day will be that Hummingbird & Runners-Up the Piping Plover family.

License Plate Of The Day to one from Montana seen along Sheridan Road
on the way home.
