    Hi all:
    
    This morning along Hayward Shoreline:
    
    Baird's Sandpiper -- pretty juvenile on the west side
    of the Hayward Interp Center in the pond that
    surrounds the center.
    Lesser Yellowlegs -- same place
    Common Murre -- 1 adult 50 yards west of Johnson's
    Landing.
    No Auklets.
    No Least Terns. Least Tern island seems to be
    completely vacated.  
    1 Forster's Tern.  Ditto for Forster's Tern Island.
    2 Wilson's Phalaropes -- Hayward ponds that surround
    the islands.
    The bustle of activity so prevalent in the Hayward
    Marsh ponds has now all but disappeared.
    Peregrine Falcon -- 1 launching from the 2nd power
    tower west of the toll booths. 
    
    The Interpretive Center is about a mile west of
    Clawiter/92 on the north side along the frontage road
    that parallels 92.
    
    Good birding,
