Today Marc Schroeder joined me at the Hoover Nature Preserve to see what
shorebirds might have dropped in after the weather front that came through
Sunday. We checked activity at the Area M boardwalk, Wiese Road and along the east
shore. We had a nice variety of birds and we met John Kuenzli who informed
us of some species we had not located. Birds of interest observed include:
Blue-winged Teal
Green-winged Teal
Northern Shoveler
Double-crested Cormorant
Great Egret
Bald Eagle (immature north of Pelican
Island)
Red-shouldered Hawk (1 fly-over at east shore)
Black-bellied Plover (only 1 today and it flew north)
Semipalmated Plover (good numbers at all locations)
Killdeer
Greater Yellowlegs
Lesser Yellowlegs
Willet (located by John near
Eastshore Yacht Club)
Spotted Sandpiper
Ruddy Turnstone (nice group at east shore just
north of Pelican Island)
Sanderling (nice numbers and cooperative
north of Pelican Island)
Semipalmated Sandpiper
Least Sandpiper
Baird’s Sandpiper (few and scattered at both Wiese
Road and east shore)
Pectoral Sandpiper
Buff-breasted Sandpiper ( a few at Wiese Road, more and
closer at east shore)
Short-billed Dowitcher (14 at Wiese Road and more at
east shore)
Red-necked Phalarope (1 with gulls and terns at east
shore)
Caspian Tern (small group at east shore)
Black Tern (several with gulls at east
