He noted that it was near the size of a Lesser Yellowlegs, but shaped more like a Pectoral SP, with orange-yellow legs, and a thickish, slightly droopy bill, about as long as the head, with white all around it. It was still there when he checked this morning. Here are his directions: > > In case you or anyone you know are in the area the field is on the south side of Birch Rd. between Hwy DJ and St. Helena Rd. one and a half miles south of Hwy 60 2 miles west of Hustisford.
