As of 9:50 a.m. The Louisiana waterthrush found earlier this morning In Solana Beach by Jay D. continues to be seen but only for brief, Few second looks as it goes up and down the creek on the north side of Academy. The stretch you want to check is the stretch visible from the parking lot with the tipu trees that's on the north side of Academy. Just one or two buildings in from Stevens. The bird seems to keep going back to two or three spots where there's actually obvious flowing water for short distances rather than stagnant water. It is quite shy. Thank goodness there is no way to get down into the creek bed where people would do nothing but scare the bird and not see it. So what one does is stay along the edge of the parking lot, Looking over the wall down into the creek. And wait. Best of course to have several people looking spread out at different spots along the wall until finally somebody sees it. But it often doesn't stay long enough for other people to get there in time!
