the water over which the bridge passes at this point F136
is a spit coming off of Lago San Lorenzo, a lake
whose main body lies to the N of the road. To the
South it extends in a much narrower channel,
with small borders of marsh quickly ending
in typical Pampas grasslands. The marsh-lake to
the north has on it both species of swan (the
b-mixed are w/young, Arowan several ducks,
at least 3 icterids, etc. See the list given
Sept 17, as it includes birds seen today in summary
form.
by road ~10 km W of Castelli, Provincia Buenos Aires, Argentina.
We have stopped by the road in order to look at
flights of golden plovers passing over. See G-P. species accent
for numerical data - the site is amidst plowed+grazed fields.
