Hi All,

I made my way out to swan creek in AA county this morning. I primarily
birded with Bill Hubick, though several other birders were around as well.
Highlights were a BAIRD'S SANDPIPER spotted by Bill on the flats of the
north cell (the only non-killdeer shorebird we saw by the way), a
heard-only FOS AMERICAN PIPIT, a WILSON'S WARBLER along the trail, and
close views of a perched in-the-open SORA down at the wetland. Two other
birders caught glimpse of the continuing NELSON'S SPARROW.
