A quick lunchtime walk in DeKorte Park produced great views of the young Tricolored Heron, which has started perching next to the Forster's Terns by the water-monitoring station halfway down the Transco Trail from the Administration Building.

Also reported today: the Least Bitterns, Osprey, Stilt Sandpipers, Semipalmated Sandpiper, yellowlegs, Short-billed Dowitchers and more.

We will continue to post shots of many of these birds by several photographers throughout the day today, so stayed tuned.
