Shorebirds

MerryLynn and I went to Tyson Pond and the Blood Ponds this morning looking for shorebirds.  We found several species: Baird's sandpiper, greater yellowlegs, lesser yellowlegs, semi-palmated sandpiper, western sandpiper, least sandpiper, solitary sandpiper, spotted sandpiper and of course killdeer.  MerryLynn flushed a barn owl in the trees across from the blood ponds while looking at a Wilson's warbler.
