Yellowlegs, 12 Least Sandpipers, 17 Coots, 8 Cormorants, 1 Ruddy and 1

Least on Pond 5 along with 4 Semipalmated Sandpipers and 2 Pectorals plus some 
additional Lesser Yellowlegs and Killdeer. Only 2 Canada Geese, 1 Eurasian 
Collared-Dove and 42 Great Egrets were seen.  Two Eastern Meadowlarks and 1
