Day 5—This day started off better as we headed out Teller Road.  At our first stop we had Orange-crowned, Yellow, and Wilson’s warblers as well as a group of Musk Oxen.  Then as we headed up the road we encountered two Surfbirds coming towards us in the middle of the road.  They offer a great photo opportunity for us.   As we went further we encountered Golden-crowned and American Tree Sparrows, many Long-tailed Jaegers and finally a Willow Ptarmigan.  We encountered another group of birders who had located a Bluethroat and we could see it in the scope but didn’t pursue getting closer in order not to disturb their opportunity.  At Wooley Lagoon we found our Northern Wheatear and had the opportunity to witness a mating display of Black-bellied Plover.  Along this road we also had several American Golden Plover.  At Bluestone River we encountered a family of three Rough-legged Hawks to cap off the day.
