We drove along the beach for the early birds. We had been seeing all the same birds as we had the day earlier. There was a different crew of volunteers and I asked them for help finding the Least Tern (a lifebird) and they sent me right over. Then we headed over to the Spoonbill Lake for another new bird, the Semi-Palmated Plover. Huzzah! Afterwards we broke camp loaded up the car and started out trip south. The leftover pizza sure made things easy in the morning
