There were six Buff-Breasted Sandpipers at this location tonight at 6:30.
Also, while scanning a flock of hundreds of Starlings by the red barn on
Burmeister Road, I found a group of nine Brewer's Blackbirds.
The oddest sighting of the day was a Peacock on top of one of the power
pylons in West Allis on the east side of Highway 45/894 between Greenfield
Avenue and I-94!

Hi all,
Jenny Wenzel called me saying she and Rick Fare had 11
Buff-breasted Sandpipers at the Wind Lake Sod farms. They were in the
narrow strip of
grass west of Britton Road, almost straight out from Olson Road. I arrived
later and found 10 of them at 1:00 PM. There is a ridge on the west side of
the grass strip so be patient as they may be out of view below the top of
the ridge from time to time.
There were no Am. Golden Plovers Friday, although I had a lone one
Tuesday afternoon.
