8/30/12

Code 4 SE winds started the day off and slowly died and shifted due south throughout the day. Needless to say despite the blue skies and warm temps this was a uninspiring day of counting, until the last half hour when I heard a Whimbrel flying by, I whistled in response and soon had it circle and briefly land on the pier before walkers flushed it and it headed south.

36 MALL
2 NSHV
1 BUFF (female type, really early)

Also has a Common Nighthawk come in off the lake (third fall record), at 1/2 mile out it sure looked like a jaeger...
