41Foster City living!LOCAL™ City Guide This part of the Bay hosts a wide variety of birds in winter and in migration that are not often seen elsewhere in the Bay. The shell bar near Tarpon St. is a great shorebird roost at high tide and the mudflats provide excellent foraging during low tide. Among the birds you can find here are Marbled Godwit, Willet, Red Knot, Black and Ruddy Turnstones, and Short- billed Dowitchers.The waters near the bridge attract many ducks, often including rarities like Long-tailed and Harlequin ducks, and White-winged and Black scoters.Viewing is easy from the paved Bay Trail on the levee.The birding is good from fall through spring. © Photo by Dennis Hancock Photography © Photo by Dennis Hancock Photography
