I visited Harney Pond East this morning in pursuit of Gary's Stilt SPs, but
no joy. But a nice surprise was a female Wilson's Warbler that posed very
nicely on the wire fence along the side of the pond by the dirt road. For
reasons unclear, I couldn't get a clear focus on anything today, but I did
get pictures.
Also present were:
Wood Duck - 9
Killdeer - 19
Pectoral Sandpiper - 1
Lesser Yellowlegs - 1
Spotted Sandpiper - 4-5
Least Sandpiper - 4-5
No sign of the Upland SP on Oland Road at mid-morning.
Grasshopper Sparrows were signing profusely at three locations: Bullfrog Rd.
just south of Bollington School Rd. Harney Pond East, and Oland Rd. I also
saw a juvenile Song Sparrow at Harney East.
