Friends:
Could I have seen two (or three!) Yellow-breasted Chats at Pt.  Isabel this 
am (Tuesday, September 22, 2009)? They were in cattails along the channel 
during a low tide, just east of the bridge over the channel near the Rydin 
Road parking lot. Bright yellow breasts, olive-greenish heads and back. I 
can't say I saw much of the face, so the other diagnostic marks went 
unobserved.
Also saw one green-shirted Maury Stern!
Willets, marbled godwits, long-billed curlews, and black-bellied plovers, 
too.
Happy Autumn to all!
