[Maine-birds] July 31 afternoon tide Whimbrel report

Only 34 birds today.  They are getting tricky to find.  My musing that they might use more productive mudflat areas in the lower part of the bay that are available during the full moon low tides actually happened!!!  They flew into the usual feeding area around 4pm, stayed maybe 15 minutes then quickly flew down the bay to feed along a sand bar (above water only during full and no-moon low tides) in the Mill Creek "delta" off Oak Point.
