Hi Tweeters,

I emerged from my (disabling chronic illness imposed) lair today to see a
truly lovely Greater Yellowlegs land amidst a ton of human activity in
Ballinger Park, on the shoreline south of the pier. It seemed completely
undisturbed by the hullabaloo, except my binoculars appearing from 100
yards away, at which point it took off and disappeared.

Also seen was a mature bald eagle cruising at "looking for lunch" altitude.

On a non-bird note, the water lilies are spectacular at the moment.

Happy birding,
