Hello Russell,

Thank you for your posting,as we feel happy knowing someone else saw the or
a different Am.Golden Plover along Brady Loop Rd.,so it is neat to know
there have been both golden plover species there over the weekend,if in fact
there were! It has been a good spring for this location so what will show up
next!

Sincerely,

Ruth and Patrick Sullivan
