Churchill" Subject: North Branch North Branch's PPG ponds aka the Rouge Lagoon (Allegany County) had a few interesting shorebirds today. Killdeer 64 Lesser Y-legs 2 Solitary SP 7 Spotted SP 2 Least SP 12 Semi SP 2 Pectoral SP 1 Also 1 female Green-winged Teal, a female Wood Duck and a few Mallards. Piney Reservoir is still very full of water as is Youghiougheny and I suppose they will be for awhile because of all the rain. Therefore the shorebirding there is no good just yet. I check the Youghiougheny almost every weekend by stopping at the Rest Area on I 68 (you can see the bulk of the reservoir from there). Good Birding. J.B.
