The Ruff was at Crockett's Lake this afternoon at 2:45. Try the southeast corner where the peeps hang out. The birds were very restless.

Now for the apologies: I was under intense pressure to get back to my job and felt I was abrupt toward Ann Marie Wood and the gentleman who let me look through his scope( I've dropped your name). I didn't properly thank the latter. I hope to deliver these apologies in person some day!!


For the record:

Semi-palmated Plovers- a handful

Western Sandpipers- a few dozen

Least Sandpipers- 2 that flew north while the flocks were trending west

Dunlin- 6 or 7

Ruff- 1



Thanks to Dave Parent and Sarah Schmidt for sending the word out about the bird.
