This evening, I went to check the North Branch tarps for any birds that
might have come in with this most recent weather system. I was pleased to
find 2 juvenile AMERICAN GOLDEN-PLOVER and one STILT SANDPIPER. After I
called my wife Colleen to let her know about the potential life birds
waiting for her, she arrived and was able to see 3 lifers including those
mentioned above and one of the several PECTORAL SANDPIPER. It was such a
great way to end a dreary autumn day! Complete list below:
