There is a now a small mudflat on the first pond on the Wetlands restoration
area.   It held

a few shorebirds this afternoon in addition to the regularly seen and
numerous Killdeer.

(I think there are probably additional mud flat areas in the wetlands field
not visible from the trail.

When these birds flushed from a G Blue Heron  close flyover, a couple of
them flew into

the middle of the field and could not be seen).



1 Lesser Yellowlegs

4 Pectoral Sandpipers

1 Least Sandpiper



Ducks present on the various ponds:



Mallard
Wood Duck
Blue-winged Teal (6 +)

Green-winged Teal (10 +)

American Wigeon (2)





I also walked the wooded nature reserve area trail, kind of quiet overall.
Highlights:



Black and White Warbler (1)

Black-throated Green Warbler (2)

Warbling Vireo (2)

Eastern Wood-Pewee (1)

(1 probable Blackpoll -  but was backlit)

Good numbers of Gray Catbirds calling
