Today, 4/29 at about 12:30pm at the Ocean Shores Sewage Treatment Plant, I found a female Ruff. The bird is near breeding plumage. It was working the grass on the edge of one of the ponds. Field marks noted include: orange legs, extremely scaled-patterned back, white eye ring, white at base of bill, dark bill. I called everyone I knew (including the BirdBox). Dianna Moore joined me shortly and she got a nice look at the bird as well. More details of my whole trip to come later...
