Birders,
Early this morning (DEC.8/07) I observed a basic Semipalmated Plover Feeding in the now ice covered Hillman Marsh. The Semi-p was in somewhat good shape and was foraging extensively. I do not know exactly what type of food the bird was feeding on but I did notice it had tried a Stag-horn Sumac seed but dropped it. the location of the semi was north east looking out into the marsh from the East Beach Parking lot. Reminder: hunting is until 2pm. no hunting on Sundays. I suspect this is a very good winter bird as I believe this Semi-p is about a month later than the last record..... comments Alan?
