Birders-

A PURPLE SANDPIPER buzzed the point this morning around 9:30 AM.  It
was headed NW along the shore before it seemingly headed off due north
over the lake.  It was not relocated.

The lingering PRAIRIE WARBLER was found again today near the "Foghorn Pond".

Yesterday, 12 November 2007, an adult BLACK-LEGGED KITTIWAKE was seen
from the point early in the afternoon.  Remarkably, this is the 2nd
ADULT kittiwake seen here this fall and the 4th kittiwake overall.

PINE GROSBEAKS, BOHEMIAN WAXWINGS, COMMON REDPOLLS, HOARY REDPOLL, and
SHARP-TAILED GROUSE have all been seen around the point in the last
couple days.

Good Birding,
Cory Gregory
