Today (Friday 9 May) there was a sizable concentration of shorebirds at the
goose viewing area at Dead Creek WMA. The birds were in the (rapidly
drying) puddle at the west end of the road. Ted Murin and I counted:
~100 Least Sandpipers
47 Lesser Yellowlegs
8 Semipalmated Plovers
1 Pectoral Sandpiper
Unfortunately there isn't much water remaining in the pool, so this habitat
probably won't last much longer.
