I arrived at the pits at 3:45 this afternoon and started looking "in all 
those old familiar places" as the song goes. Her Highness was not to be 
found. There were a lot of birds moving about due to the number of 
Mississippi Kites but I could pick her out of any of the flocks flying about. 
There is a lot of habitat to be looked at but these birds generally habituate 
themselves to certain plots and unless things change they usually can be 
found. I did find an American Golden-Plover in basic plumage and most of the 
interesting species that have been around like the Baird's and W. Phalarope 
but not her.

FINALLY as I was about to leave, I checked back at her old hunting grounds 
and stopped by chance to talk to the plant manager; as we talked she dropped 
in out of nowhere. At 6:05 she was again holding her territory and feeding. 
Hopefully she will hold over this weekend................

Good Birding!!!
