The Bellevue ponds along 292 are now down to one pond - only the area to the 
northwest of the road/rail intersection has water.  The southwest quadrant was 
still damp enough to interest about 75 killdeer and an American pipit.  The 
water's edge had more killdeer, many least sandpipers, a few pectoral 
sandpipers, two spotted sandpipers, two short-billed dowitchers, at least 30 
yellowlegs (both greater and lesser) and two more pipits.
