Thanks to the heads-up from Dave Powell (keep those calls coming folks!), Bryan Blazie and I got the Lesser Golden-Plover at Aldino Sod Farm this morning, number 225 for the year in Harford Couny. We checked the rest of the farm and found nothing but Killdeer, and stops at a half-dozen fields for Upland Sand were fruitless (a bird it looks like I might miss). The ponds at Lakeside were a bust. Not a single non-Killdeer shorebird for the fourth time in two weeks. Rick "The whole of nature is a conjugation of the verb to eat, in the active and passive." -- Dean William R.
