Brush up on your shorebird ID skills in time for the passage of these fascinating birds through our area in spring and their return in fall. Clive will cover the expected species—common, less common, and rare—taking a seasonal approach and focusing on some of the main approaches for ID, as well as covering possible pitfalls.  Clive Harris started birding as a young boy, going on walks with his father when the family lived in Hong Kong in the 1970s. His favorite groups of birds are gulls, shorebirds and waterfowl—all birds you can aim a scope at! He makes regular trips over the spring, summer, and fall to the Delaware Bay area to enjoy shorebird migration. One of his greatest pleasures in birding is sorting through a flock of late summer peeps. As well as being a past president of the Montgomery Bird Club he has served two terms on the MOS Maryland/District of Columbia Records Committee.
