On the NS Migration Count yesterday, Pat McKay and I found the following =
shorebirds in Three Fathom Harbour, in addition to the usual Greater =
Yellowlegs and Willets:

Black-bellied Plover        27
Ruddy Turnstone            7
Red Knot                         7
Semipalmated Sandpiper    1
Short-billed Dowitcher        47 =20

All were seen together at Dottie's Pond at high tide, between 14:45 and =
15:45. =20

A morning count at the main harbour (from Causeway Road) two hours =
before low tide produced only the Red Knot, a few of the plover, and =
Willet.  Only Willet and Greater Yellowlegs were seen at Shorebird Cove. =


Cheers,
Susann Myers
