Jim Mead, Mary Lafayette and I converged at the corner of Lake and
Greenbush in Charlotte, and located all the birds listed in Heather's
note. This was about 10 AM, on 9/13.
With the exception of the larks and the Buff-breasted, the birds were
concentrated in the big puddle to the north ('way out there'). The
larks and buff-breasted sandpipers were in the field closest to
greenbush rd, but near the back. If you go, keep your eyes open for a
Whimbrel that was seen earlier in the day.
Good birding,
Terry
