There have been 8 Willets hanging out on the north shore of Union the last couple of days, still there this morning. 4 Semi-palm sandpipers 2 days ago and 2 Western peeps last night. Was really "ducky" this morning with 15-25 each of Blue/Green-winged Teal, Gadwall, Shoveler's and Mallards, along with a lone Avocet and 2 Eared Grebes.
Had a Lincoln's Sparrow, Orange-Crowned warbler and both Myrtle and Audubon's Warblers this morning at Jim Hamm NA in east Longmont this morning. Marsh Wrens singing in the reeds, but didn't get a visual.
