Checklist Comments

Quick scan of the open channel yielded another lagoon first -- Pectoral Sandpiper. I was able to sweet-talk my way into the construction area. It was quitting time and the guy I spoke with didn't care so long as I had my yellow vest, hard hat, long pants, boots, etc. I came home to enter the PESA and then went back and made some counts. 72 F; clear skies; 2-4 mph wind.
