Walked down Beach Ridge to Ctg.S.
♂ white rump displayed - saw very
rapid chase involving two birds. Two
pairs of reo-backs, pair of Semi-pals on
ridge; little activity. Returned via aacs
and saw Semipalmated Plover sitting
quietly on disturbed polygon by Medoe
River Wannigan road.
In the afternoon drove our road
across Beach Ridge - saw ♂ white-rump
in same place - then to S. end of P's plot.
Pitelka censused plot while Nito and I
walked down ridge to corner by Wohlslag
slough, and along N. shore of slough.
Watched a very cooperative pair of
baird's by South end of plot. Not
much else cooperated. Saw and
observed occasional reo-backs and a
pair of turnstones in vicinity of CRRRL
wannigan. Reo-backs were obviously
not completely settled, and boundaries
were still in dispute. Still not much
bare ground for them to settle on.
In the evening went across
Wohlslag Slough to do some
collecting - and a very successful
evening it was. First collected a
pair of turnstones - ♂ SM 492 - W/
