Jan and I stopped by the flooded fields around 2:50 PM that  were 
previously reported on S. Pear Orchard Rd. Most of the water is gone  now. Just 
a 
little left. Still held a lot of Yellowlegs that I think were all  Lessers, 3 
Wilson's Phalaropes, and a couple of White-rumped Sandpipers.  Did not see 
any Godwits or Whimbrels
 
Got to Smith Oaks in High Island around 3:30 and went straight back to  
Don's Drip and pretty much staid there all evening. It was another Yellow  
Warbler Bonanza again day. They were all over the woods. List below.
