Regular checks of the remaining shorebird spots in
southern Warren County had turned up no migrant
shorebirds until yesterday, July 19, when Least
Sandpipers were present at Meng's and Petros Ponds.

Today, July 20, I joined Nicole Ranalli in conducting
a shorebird survey on the Peabody WMAs with the
following birds of interest present:

Paradise Ash Basin

Least Sandpiper 2
Black-crowned Night-Heron  1 juv
Great Egret 2
Double-crested Cormorant 2

Homestead Unit

Pectoral Sandpiper 17
Least Sandpiper 6
Solitary Sandpiper 5-6
Great Egret 
Ring-necked Duck  male in molt

Henslow's Sparrows were very conspicuous in song at
many stops, but Bell's Vireos were heard at only a
few.  Willow Flycatchers were recorded at 2 stops.  A
single female Northern Harrier was observed on the
Sinclair Unit.  A family of Sharp-shinned Hawks with
begging juvs was present on the Homestead Unit where I
had observed adults earlier in the summer.
