Between 6 - 6:40 PM Sept. 13, 2006 the Ruff was at Rest Lake. At first we
(Carol Kohler and I) could get glimpses of it as it moved about near the
photo blind. Carol had found it earlier so we figured it was still aorund.
Then something scared off it along with the few peeps it was with and along
with the ducks, egrets and herons. It moved towards the open mud. We
couldn't locate it until we drove to the east side and scanned the mud flats
where it was hanging out with a Killdeer. With this low pressure weather
pattern approaching I don't know how long this Ruff will hang out.
