An eclipse male Blue-winged Teal was on the Nob Hill Pond on the 8th. The male Blue-winged Teal was still present this morning near an eclipse male Cinnamon Teal. There was not muchof an increase of shorebirds except for Greater Yellowlegs. I did note the first arrival of Black-bellied Plovers. ( 24 ) adult Ring-billed Gulls on Belmont Slough across from Preserve Park on the 9th. ( 3 ) Adults on the 2nd were the first arrivals. This morning, I noted the first dispersal of juvenile California Gulls coming from colonies in the south bay. ( 31 ) Juveniles passed by Coyote Point.
