Big news on the Gull Point Trail this past weekend was the unexpected installation of what appears to be a new interpretive (?) sign/kiosk at the trailhead at the Budny Beach parking lot:

Currently, the kiosk is lacking content, i.e., empty. Perhaps a good spot for a poster like one of the following?



Moving on to more important matters, it’s back to birds along the Gull Point Trail on Saturday, starting with an American Robin foraging for berries:








Here’s a quite distant but quite fun sighting of immature Piping Plover, w/ dark bill and very pale/white overall:







At outer Gull Point, on one of the main lagoons, it’s Bank Swallow flycatching over the water, w/ reflections:








Finally, on one of the bayside beaches, here’s a Semipalmated Plover exhibiting robin-like “foraging for earthworms” behaviour:








This Team Member sent copies of the posters to the Chief Ranger at PI. A memo was attached telling him to post them! 🙂
Loved all the photos Fun to see the Osprey sitting on a sign post. Nice to see the Ranger staff putting up posts for them!
As always, excellent coverage!
