Carolyn Bullock and I ran our weekly trip to the Pits on Sunday, the  
22nd. The numbers of Least Sandpipers remained steady from last week  
around 300-350. It was difficult to obtain a precise number since  
they were very active. A late Spotted Sandpiper was seen on the TVA  
pond. Ringed-billed Gulls have taken the place of the Franklins of  
two weeks ago. A lone Bald Eagle was seen. Northern Shovelers were  
the only duck seen in abundance. There were only 7 Lesser Scaup on  
the pond. Even the resident Shrikes were not seen, although the  
impaled sparrow photgraphed last week was gone, so we know they are  
there.  Better luck next week.
