Observation details
At dawn there were already several hundred shovelers, but as the morning progressed, more and more arrived, mostly from the west, flying in fairly low in groups of about 20 to 80. The influx seemed to have stopped by late morning, with most of the birds either rafting offshore, resting on the beach or bathing in the "fresh" water.
