Subject: [wisb] Racine purple sandpiper
The Purple Sandpiper, and the Dunlin, were present at Carre-Hogle Park in Racine
around 11:00 A.M. today (Wed Dec 26). No funny gulls out on the ice though that
I could see … just the usual two species. An accipiter, a sharpie by the looks
of it, passed over the car as I was leaving, making what looked like a beeline
for a neighborhood feeder. You get so used to seeing Cooper’s Hawks all year
long in these urban settings that my initial cue for a Sharp-shinned is just
that it looks … well, different. “Hey, that’s an accipiter, but it’s not a
Cooper’s!” Well, probably not—I saw it for all of half a second.

Subject: [wisb] Racine Gulls, Purple Sandpiper
There were very few gulls at the Slaty-backed Gull spot when I arrived about
9:30am, but the Purple Sandpiper was present. One Iceland Gull was observed
flying in and sat for a few minutes out near the small group of gulls, but that
was the only unusual gull present for the hour plus I was there. I got some
decent photos of the Purple Sandpiper though:

I hope that Slaty-backed turns up somewhere nearby. I never made the decision to
get up to see the one last year, so a more local bird would be a great thing.

reported by Ted Keyel to
WisBirdNet

Subject: [wisb] Slaty-backed Gull Racine
Hi all,
I went back this morning to try to get pictures of the Purple Sandpiper and Dunlin on the algae maps at Carre-Hogle Park, I started looking to see if there were any rare gulls around. Immediately found an adult non-breeding Lesser Black-backed Gull. Upon a little further inspection, I saw another medium-large adult, non-breeding gull with a dark mantle. I was surprised to see that it had pink legs! The bird had very heavily streaked head (similar to the Menasha bird last winter). My friend Stephan was with me, and while he's not a birder, he said that the legs looked pink as well (and specifically not yellow, as could be compared with the Lesser). The bird had been standing in the water near a frozen patch in the lake and was slightly preening (I could see mirrors on P10 and P9). About the time Rick Fare came by, it flew over to the ice, put its head down and went to sleep. It was still present when I left about 11:30, though still sleeping. The Lesser Black-backed was not. Both shorebirds where.
However, they did fly out to the breakwater at one point, so if you go looking for them and do not find them right away, I would suggest waiting around a little bit. Good birding to all!

Subject: [wisb] Northern Shrike in Racine
Hi fellow birders,
There is a Northern Shrike hanging out at the Pike River Trail which is located
on Old Spring Street east of Stuart Road. (Maps show it as near Timmer Lane).
The shrike was seen briefly on 12/20, and despite very dense fog, I did manage
to find it again today for the Racine CBC. Both days, the bird was on the
west side of the trail, between the second bridge and the cornfield. He's rather
wary....today he flew off just as I was getting my camera out. He stayed within
sight, however, so I managed to get some distant photos in thick fog :(
There are also Am. Robins (11 today) hanging out in red berried trees just
across the street from the trail's small parking area.
