Hi All,

I spent some time at the Yough Reservoir (off of Old Morgantown Road) today, 
and managed some nice shorebirds before the storms began.  The best was an 
adult UPLAND SANDPIPER that was running around in the short grasses that 
have grown up since the water receded.  As noted previously By Stan Arnold, 
there is a lot of available shorebird habitat here and is definitly worth 
checking!
