Hello, All--

The Buff-breasted Sandpiper continues at the polo fields on Hughes Rd, Montgomery Co, as of 10:30 this morning. As before, it was pretty much in line with the little pull-off. Horned Larks and an Am Pipit were also in the fields, as were Killdeer.

Hughes Hollow held both Yellowlegs, Leasts, and Solitary Sandpipers, and Killdeer.

Yesterday, 8/22, the sod farm fields along River Rd just downcounty from White's Ferry had 3 or 4 Pectorals and a Least Sand, as well as a couple dozen Killdeer. These birds were in or near an area of roughly plowed clumps of mud, with machinery behind.
