Observation details
All in one flock foraging along north shoreline. Were in breeding plumage. This seemed like a large number of this species for this locations and for this time of year. I looked at the over 250 records of this species from this location since the year 2000 and the vast majority of records were of 1 or 2 birds and the 17 seen today is the second largest recorded during this time period (the most was 25 on 22 Oct., 2012). Also, of these 250 plus records, this is only the third record from April.
