    East Bay Birders,
    
    Late this afternoon (4:45) I spotted a WANDERING TATTLER at the San =
    Leandro
    Marina.  The bird was on the rocky shoreline adjacent to Par Course =
    Station
    #13 in Marina Park, foraging with a small group of Black Turnstones as =
    the
    tide was receding.  What first drew me to a closer look at this bird was =
    its
    incessant tail bobbing (reminiscent of a Spotted Sandpiper).  =
    Interestingly,
    I saw a W. Tattler at almost this exact location on 1/28 of this year.
    
    Other interesting birds included 12+ Ruddy Turnstones (first I've seen =
    this
    year) and several Sanderlings on the breakwater and foraging closer =
    inshore
    as the tide went out.  Last weekend (Sun, 10/24), there were 20+ =
    Surfbirds
    and around half a dozen Elegant Terns on the breakwater at high tide --
    didn't see either of these species today.
