This afternoon the only waterfowl on Big Parsons Pond was a single Coot. There 
were also a good many Killdeer, a few Pectoral Sandpipers and 1 Least 
Sandpiper. The smaller transient pond was dry. But for some reason there was a 
good number and variety of birds on the tiny pond just over the rise from the 
gravel pull off - 3 Blue-winged Teals, 2 Mallards, maybe a dozen Pectoral 
Sandpipers, 2 Wilson's Snipes, 2 Least Sandpipers, 1 Greater Yellowlegs and one 
more which I first tried to call a Western, then Baird's and finally settled on 
White-rumped after some interaction with the facebook ID bird group of the 
world. Still a little uncertain because I didn't see any red on its lower 
mandible. White-rumped Sandpiper pics here -
