My wife and I stopped at a small pond at County KP and Breunig Road
Sunday evening. The pond has nice mud flats without all the weeds.
However, it will dry up if there is not a lot of rain soon.

There weren't many birds. There was a Spotted Sandpiper and one Dunlin.
Spotted Sandpipers are fairly common right now. But the Dunlin is the first
I have seen for a while. Wonder if this a late arrival or one that may spend 
the summer
around Dane Co.?

It would be nice if we had a couple of inches of rain to fill this pond back up
to see if other late shore birds would find it.

Good birding.
