I measured 4"of rain at my home Tuesday. As a result the ground is extremely saturated and there are many temporary ponds. This morning I added 3 new "yard birds" while looking out one of my front windows. There were 2 Long billed Curlews walking around on the landing strip in front of my house. In a temporary pond further back were 6 Gadwalls and 3 Northern Shovelers.
