Greene County: Bridge Burners Boulevard, Wal-Mart Distribution Center (WMDC),
etc.
I arrived at Bridge Burners Boulevard just after first light this morning in
hopes of finding the Black-necked Stilt reported there yesterday by Ben
Britton. I spent about an hour there, at WMDC, and on nearby Pottertown Road,
but I found no stilt. At mid-day, I visited the area again for about twenty
minutes for another look, but again I found no stilt. Other species were
active, though, and I was able to observe the following, some of which I found
outside the Bridge Burners Boulevard-WMDC area:
American Wigeon (Bridge Burners Blvd.)
American Black Duck (Bridge Burners Blvd.)
Blue-winged Teal (35 Bridge Burners Blvd., etc.)
Northern Shoveler (6 Bridge Burners Blvd.)
Green-winged Teal (WMDC)
