[obol] Stanley Lake - 8/6/2007

[Mike Patterson]

A singing male LAZULI BUNTING was in the alder/willow patch on 
the east side of Stanley Lake this afternoon.  When I left I
could still hear it and Steve Warner had just arrived to re-find
it.

There were plenty of shorebirds on Stanley Lake as well including
two SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS and three LESSER YELLOWLEGS.

the list:
  Semipalmated Plover    500+
  Killdeer               4
  Greater Yellowlegs     2
  Lesser Yellowlegs      3
  Baird's Sandpiper      1
  Semipalmated Sandpiper 2
  Western Sandpiper      800
  Least Sandpiper        300
  Red-necked Phalarope   1
