Hey Tweets!
I saw an AMERICAN GOLDEN-PLOVER in Auburn today.
At the "M" street 'pond' west of Emerald Downs. There is a small remnant pond to the south of the dirt road off "M" street, and the Plover was running around the field just south of the pond, with about 50 Killdeer, among the turf clods.
Also at the pond were 2 PECTORAL SANDPIPERS, a basic plumage DUNLIN, and about 30 WILSON'S SNIPE. In the same field, towards the back was a small flock of GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GEESE. And in the larger field to the north, saw a flock of several hundred CACKLING GEESE.

Directions:
from highway 167, just north of intersection with highway 18, take the 15th street exit. Turn east towards Auburn. Take the first left onto "M" street. (NOT the on-ramp back to 167! Kathy!! ;) Go down and around the corner, past the industrial building. There is a small pull-out just over the creek. That is the 'dirt road' above. The Plover was in the field between the dirt road and the industrial bulding.
Good Luck!

At the Thomas Pond I had a GREATER YELLOWLEGS, a couple of WILSON'S SNIPE, and 2 AMERICAN PIPITS. NORTHERN SHOVELOR as well.
