Breakfast for a Dowitcher
courtney_meier posted a photo:
A Dowitcher (Limnodromus sp.) probes the mud of the San Elijo Lagoon for its breakfast, apparently oblivious to the frenetic morning rush-hour traffic and commerce along Interstate 5 in the background. Without my binoculars, I couldn't be sure whether this was the Long-Billed or the Short-Billed species, as the bill length is actually pretty variable.

Remnant at Daybreak
courtney_meier posted a photo:
The view westward across The San Elijo Lagoon toward US 101 and the Pacific Ocean at dawn. The Lagoon is one of the largest remaining coastal wetlands in San Diego County. Shell middens have been found there that date back 8500 years. Remnants of the endangered coastal sage scrub ecosystem meet the salt marsh in the uplands, and because of this diversity, over 300 species of birds have been sited here. Unfortunately, Interstate 5 thunders day and night in the distance behind me.
