A beautiful evening at the Meadows, mild temperatures, light winds and good birds. The highlights were in the east pool where we had many shorebirds until a Merlin flushed them again and again but we were able to get good looks at many including, Stilt, Semipalmated, Western, Pectoral and Least Sandpipers. We finished the evening with a nice sunset and two Sora. Leaders: Warren Cairo and Bill Smythe.
