Lesser Yellowlegs with Least Sandpipers, Connecticut River, Hadley, MA, Aug 28, 2014 |
Made a few brief stops on my way into work this morning with the most productive spot being along the Connecticut River where I had a Lesser Yellowlegs, a Solitary Sandpiper, a few Spotted Sandpipers and nine Least Sandpipers plus a couple each of Great Egret and Great Blue Heron. The Honeypot was very quiet but I literally stopped for just a couple minutes to scan a few fields so there may have been stuff around that I missed.
It is the time of year once again for me to look back fondly at an epic day of birding that occurred at Winsor Dam during the passage of Hurricane Irene through the area back in 2011. It is hard to believe it has been three years already...time flies! A link to the list for the day is below:
