A very large flock of nearly 500 Buff-breasted Sandpipers (rough estimate)
were sitting in a plowed field one mile west of Bishop. I came back 20
minutes later and nearly all but 5 were gone, and a Peregrine Falcon was
feeding on a dead BB Sandpiper in the same field. 3 Upland Sandpipers were
nearby. Also a group of 8 Groove-billed Ani were in Kleberg County.
