[EBB Sightings] Surfbirds at Pinole Bayfront Park

Hi EBBers,

At this morning's outgoing tide there were nine Surfbirds on the sand/pebble 
bar at the mouth of Pinole Creek at Pinole Bayfront Park.  For birders not 
familiar with this location, there are frequently many birds on this bar on 
the outgoing and low tides.  This morning there were 13 shorebird species 
including (the aforementioned) Surfbirds, Black Turnstones, Ruddy 
Turnstones, Black Oystercathcers, and Red Knots. Gulls, Terns, Crows, Rock 
Pigeons, Starlings, Egrets, Ducks, and a variety of other species commonly 
visit the bar.

Good birding,
Bob Battagin
