Today I birded the East Shore and the Boardwalk at Hoover Reservoir, Delaware County. Shortly after arriving on the East Shore I ran into a birder, Matt, whose last name I cannot remember. (My apologies, Matt). He quickly pointed out an immature Little Blue Heron, which was some distance away. We attempted to walk around an inlet, then out on a peninsula to get closer to the bird, but by the time we got there it had left. We continued up the East Shore to the bridge but did not relocate it in that area. We saw the birds which have been previously reported in that area, including Killdeer, Lesser and Greater Yellowlegs, Pectoral Sandpiper, Spotted Sandpiper, Solitary Sandpiper and Caspian Tern. Matt finally located the Willet which has been present for a few days. There were several Cedar Waxwings in the trees near the mudflats. We proceeded to the Boardwalk in Area N, and found Least, Semipalmated and Pectoral Sandpipers, Killdeer, a Semipalmated Plover, and finally relocated the Little Blue Heron on a small island between the Boardwalk and the Osprey platform.
