I had a  great morning at Sandy Ridge, despite the rain.
Highlights included: Am. Bittern, Sora, Va. Rail, Common Moorhen, a
Sandhill Crane,
a few FOS swallows and warblers, and some shorebirds.
I had an extended, in flight view of the bittern, and the Va. Rail was
giving great views
alongside the walkway in the marsh.
