Edisto Beach 26 October




A day trip to the coast to bird with Sharon Brown proved interesting and 
fun yesterday.  Among the highlights found from a variety of stops in and 
around Edisto Beach were a late Yellow-billed Cuckoo, a very late Yellow 
Warbler, and a lengthy excellent look at a Nelson's Sharp-tailed 
Sparrow.  Also noted were a large group (another of those large 
"tornadoes") of mostly Tree Swallows with a Bank Swallow or two added to 
the mix for some variation.  Although we didn't get real good looks, a 
couple of American Oystercatchers were noted across the mouth of the tidal 
creek.  A fun day afield - no big numbers but enough diversity to be fun 
and several late migrants to add a little wonder.
