Today Dave Larkin and I visited the Perryman Park impoundment (entrance is
on Ford's Lane) and found six species of shorebirds.
Killdeer-5
Least Sand-25+
Pectoral-4
Spotted-2
Whie-rumped-1
Western-1 possible
The White-rumped was in a scraggly plumage. We had an excellent, close look
and so the ID was fairly simple.
The seasonal pond at Canning House Road is now hidden by a cornfield and
probably dry, anyway.
Dave showed me a wet area near the Bill's Furniture and Rite Aid warehouses.
It had a few interesting birds.
Killdeer-- 6
Greater Yellowlegs-2
American Kestrel-1
