Great to see this bird is sticking sticking around. Looks like it was first seen on the 10th.
Clay-colored sightings seem to be getting more numerous during migration in the Eastern Fraser Valley.

I met Dan Tyson at Hope Airport as well today with 3 keen younger birds. Nice to see you again Dan. The Upland Sandpiper was again in the Northwest corner of the airport. It conveniently liked to hangout near the fence. A nice bird that I have not seen in 8 years and a first for BC for me. Of interest, we also have 14 Horned Larks in the middle of the airport runway dodging the odd glider and plane coming down! The sharp young eyes also picked out 1 Western Meadowlark in the tall weedy east end of the strip.

Marion and I had a bit of time on Sunday, and we went up, and got there is time for the Terry Fox Run! They just set up the course around the Airport. And someone was chainsawing some brush along the fence. We dipped. Oh well...
