Other birds present included five Short-billed Dowitchers (a new report for the site), 30+ Lesser Yellowlegs, 10+ Greater Yellowlegs, and 3 Pectoral Sandpipers. At one point the flock rose and swirled to show over 100 individuals. A female Northern Harrier passed by, but caused only a very minor stir amongst the shorebirds.
