Four buff-breasted sandpipers were at the Falls about 11:30 this morning.  I 
watched them from the Indiana side for about 10 minutes, then could not 
relocate them after they flew back and forth below the wall.  I did not see 
them leave, however, and I suspect they're still there.  They were actively 
feeding when I watched them, and spent most of their time in the darker, 
pock-marked rocks near the wall across the fossil beds.

Also at the Falls:  osprey (soaring overhead), 3 Caspian terns, greater 
yellowlegs, great egret, some unidentified peeps, lots of killdeer.
