Des Moines Marina/Salt Water State Park Field Trip (12/12/03) Highlights

It was a good day to observe waterfowl.

Rhinoceros Auklet and Red-necked Grebe at Salt Water SP by Joyce Meyer

Common Murre, Pigeon Guillemot, Marbled Murrelet, and Rhinocerous Auklet were scoped along with Barrow's Goldeneye, Harlequin Duck and Red-breasted Merganser. There were large rafts of Surf, White-winged and Black Scoters.

One Townsend's Warbler flew with a flock of Bushtits, and Bald Eagles flew overhead and called from the trees.

There were 10 birders and 37 species sighted.
