Drove to Marysville today with Don Perks and John Laimey and easily found the Eurasian-collared Dove as advertised. The bird showed up after 30 minutes of our arrival and possibly sooner. It was on the north side of the road sitting on the wires some 2 to 3 hundred feet east of the church close to the house on the north side of the road.
At Presquille we found two Red Knots on Beach 4 and very little else. No White-winged Dove however. After this we drove to Second Marsh and found at least 95 Whimbrel in the marsh, a Clay-colored Sparrow in the fields close to the viewing platform and many, many singing Willow Flycatchers. Take 401 Hwy to exit 566 and go south on Hwy 49 (less than 1 Km) to Old Hwy 2 and then right on Hwy 2, for 2.7 km. to the Marysville Catholic Church.
