The Sandpipers have begun their fall migration. Seven Sandpipers were seen
at Huntley Meadows yesterday, 7/11/02, from 0730 to 0930 including 10
Killdeer, 1 Greater Yellowlegs, 1 Lesser Yellowlegs, 1 Solitary Sandpiper, 2
Spotted Sandpiper, 5 Least Sandpiper, and 1 Pectoral Sandpiper. I know, a
Killdeer is not a Sandpiper.
