I checked out the Deer Creek Wildlife Area this morning and saw the
following shorebirds

Semipalmated Plover     2
Killdeer
Lesser Yellowlegs     15
Solitary Sandpiper    2
Spotted Sandpiper     1
Semipalmated Sandpiper
Least Sandpiper
Pectoral Sandpiper
Stilt Sandpiper     8
dowitcher sp.     2
Wilson's Snipe     1

Other notables:
Adult Bald Eagle
Osprey
Pied-billed grebe
Horned Lark

Most of the shorebirds were on the east side of the wetland, which made for
easy morning viewing from that side.
