Subject: A Third Upland Sandpiper (perhaps a population)


Inlanders,

Sorry for the late report, but on Monday June 28th, I found an Upland Sandpiper about 150 yards southeast of the corner of Deno and Rambo roads. I believe that this is a different bird than the bird near the corner of Deno and Rambo roads (about 2 miles away). This bird couldn't be seen from the road. It was seen on private land, and I was given permission to access this property. I think that there might be a population of Upland Sandpipers in this area, as it looks like there is suitable habitat throughout the area.
