At 8:15 AM this morning I found the group of 8 in easy viewing distance from
the Woodward Turf farm sign, but also found 2 additional birds a little
further down rte. 654. On nearby Grassdale Rd, I met up with Mike Iwanik who
had
located 3 additional Upland Sandpipers in the recently plowed fields. So it's
possible that there were a total of 16 Upland Sandpipers sighted today. Of
course, birds do fly.
Besides the Uplands, Grassdale Rd. also provided sightings of Killdeer and
two immature Red-headed Woodpeckers.
