Description

On 20 July we had 13 species of shorebirds at Owens Lake indicating that they think it is fall in spite of the heat and humidity! First of Fall species were: two adult Semipalmated Plovers at Dirty Socks and 28 adult Long-billed Dowitchers at Dirty Socks and Cottonwood Marsh. Small downy chicks of Snowy Plovers, Black-necked Stilts, and American Avocets were also seen.
