Covered in orders: KY1574 slough, Uniontown/Mt. Vernon Road slough, Horseshoe
Road slough.
Drove 15 miles, walked 3/4 mile @ HRs.
All the rain we had yesterday did not effect the slough levels, just made the
edges muddier.
Highlights:
Least Sandpiper numbers continue to increase
Greater Yellowlegs continues at U/Mtv Road slough
Spotted Sandpiper continues at KY1574 slough
While I was at Horseshoe Road slough I had a large shorebird (non-killdeer,
non-yellowlegs) fly over calling several times then it was gone.
I have no idea what it was and was not able to locate it.
