Sorry everyone...didn't get around to posting this yesterday.  The north end of Hoover still had a nice number of shorebirds early yesterday morning.  I only had time to hit the boardwalk and the Wiese Road access point.

The flats off of Wiese Rd. had a large concentration of 'peeps' at sunrise.  There was considerable movement of each flock so it was hard to get accurate numbers but here are the estimates I ended up with:

Shorebirds:

Semipalmated Plover          16
Killdeer                     20
Greater Yellowlegs            1
Lesser Yellowlegs             3
Semipalmated Sandpiper       56
WESTERN SANDPIPER             1
Least Sandpiper              35
WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPER        1
Stilt Sandpiper               5
Short-billed Dowitcher        6

Other Highlights from the boardwalk:

Black Tern                    1
Red-breasted Nuthatch         1
