Hi All,

There were two adult AMERICAN GOLDEN-PLOVERS largely in alternate plumage at Great Oak Pond just off Handy Point Rd today. Also present were 4 Killdeer, 12 Lesser Yellowlegs, 1 Greater Yellowlegs, 1 Spotted Sandpiper, 2 Least Sandpipers, 12 Green-winged Teal, and 9 Northern Shovelers.

We still have at least two hummers at our feeders, and among the migrants in our yard was a young female Blackburnian Warbler.

Good Birding,

Walter Ellison
