Lunaria lapponica
May23 Pitimeren Cris. One seen flying down
river as we crossed in late afternoon.
Earlier saw a shrewbud, possibly the
species, flying high-headed downstream.
May26 Flock of 4 flying - 2 males + 2 females.
Sex dimorphism extreme in size - male
small - red breastted, female, largest grey.
Hadn't realized it was so striking.
June15 Heard Godwit call from direction of
Loon Marsh early this P.M.
June16 Saw one near Longtail #10 nest. It flew over
some + landed on rocky ridge. Not very
noisy for a Godwit.
June17 A male Godwit flew up from Loon Marsh
Flw off with no comment.
