SECTOR 43 - Estuary - Chorro Creek to Los Osos Creek

Check willows along Chorro Creek drainage. Check estuary from South Bay Blvd. Walk as much of salicornia as possible (boots). Listen for Short-billed Dowitcher (mellow “tu-tu-tu”, not the harsh “keek” of Long-billed). Check sparrows for Sharp-tailed and Swamp.
