Basin M of the slough is getting pretty good for waders, with the highlights today being a rn phalarope, wf ibis, and 1 lesser yellowlegs associating with 4 greaters. There were about 50 peeps (least/western), 30 dowitchers, one semipalmated plover, and a couple stilts. Still plenty of egrets hanging out here and at least a pair each of BW and cinnamon teals. It'll be interesting to keep an eye on shorebirds here in the coming weeks.
