Hello folks,
This evening I observed four Buff-breasted Sandpipers along the eastern
most margin of the drawn down Wolf Lake at Bong SRA, Kenosha Co. After
checking the dried flats farther to the west, I was returning to my car
parked off 18th St. On the trailing edge of the large front that moved
through this evening, was a jaeger gliding and soaring slowly to the
southwest. I didn't have my scope on me or any photographic equipment, so
I noted as many details as possible, but I'm not comfortable calling it
anything but a "spuh" based on my views. For more details please see the
species comments in my eBird checklist:

One of the most unexpected flyover species at an inland site that I can
think of!
Good birding!
