    Hi EBBers,
    
    This morning at Oakland's Middle Harbor Shoreline Park the WANDERING 
    TATTLER continues along the rip rap at the southwest corner of the area 
    known as the Western Pacific Mole.  A good map of Middle Harbor Shoreline 
    Park is at 
    http://www.ebparks.org/files/EBRPD_files/brochure/middle_harbor_map.pdf
    
    A BAIRD'S  SANDPIPER foraged alone on the exposed mudflats in the harbor 
    during the low tide.
    
    Two BLACK OYSTERCATCHERS roosted along the rock waterbreak (only visible at 
    low tide) that connects the former Ferry Slip and Rail Head with the man 
    made jetty that separates the harbor from SF Bay.
    
    Good birding,
    Bob Battagin
    Oakland
