Thirteen American Avocets at farm pond in Logan County. They were on the ground 
when I first saw them while driving to that place with my nephew for work 
related reasons. When I returned they were in the air because the cows had 
taken the spot where they had been wading. They circled until I gave up and put 
my equipment back in the truck, then they all lit. My nephew pulled up with a 
wagon load of tobacco sticks before my hands quit trembling. I snapped off 
several horrible but recognizable pictures before I opened the gate for him. 
Soon the Avocets were up again. The exact location of this pond is pinpointed 
on the map for the picture of a Great Egret I posted earlier on the KOS flickr 
page. It's on the Orndorf Mill Road 1 mile NE of Dot. The Great Egret is still 
there too.
