Today my wife Donna and I went to Piney Reservoir to see the exposed
mudflats that Matt Tillet mentioned recently. I'm also including a
report from 5 days ago at North Branch. Highlights were SEMIPALMATED
PLOVER and PECTORAL SANDPIPER (at both locations), GREAT EGRET and
GREEN-WINGED TEAL at Piney and the regular assortment of peeps.
