Today I went birding in Eastshore State Park in Berkeley shortly after low tide. I hoped I might get lucky and see the Wandering Tattlers that have been spotted over the last several days but no success.
I did a quick stop to check out the area near the Seabreeze Cafe on the way out and then walked from Marina Blvd along the Virginia St. Extension to the Bay Trail and north along the Bay Trail to Gilman Street and back. No unusual birds today. The best sightings were a Spotted Sandpiper, a Pelagic Cormorant, a Brown Pelican and two Black Oystercatchers. I saw twenty different birds. I was unable to identify the Terns and Grebes (Western and/or Clark’s) to species as they were to far away to get definite ID’s (at least for me). I did see a harbor seal and Cabbage White and Common Buckeye Butterflies.
