Verily as I watched, a single Greater Yellowlegs came in, and stayed = through the rest of the morning. Also seen were: Killdeer (14) Pintail Duck (8) Mallards (2) Greater Scaup (2) Common Snipe (2) And overhead - two Bald Eagles, one Red-tailed Hawk, many Black = Vultures and several Turkey Vultures. Still plenty of Canada Geese around - over 350 were near the ponds. = Several Horned Larks were also in the adjacent fields.
