["Roseanna Denton" <roseanna@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I checked out Thurston's and Cooley's Ponds today. Thurston's appears to 
have some fairly good habitat, but no shorebirds were found. A couple of 
Cooley's Ponds on the west side of Mystic View Road are practically dry with 
only a few puddles and mostly mud. The "main" pond on the east side has a 
little habitat.
Shorebirds identified:
Wilson's Phalarope 1 (on the main pond) It and a few other shorebirds were 
being harassed by a Cooper's Hawk.
Killdeer approx. 25
Semipalmated Plover 2
Lesser Yellowlegs 5
Pectoral Sandpiper 10+
Least Sandpiper 5
Semipalmated Sandpiper 2
Solitary Sandpiper 1

Birding smiles . . . . .
