Stilt Sandpipers at Crom Lake this morning, Yes

[Carl Starace]

  To Dave Cameron and others seeking shorebirds at Crom Lake in future. A local farmer told me that Crom will receive more water on Tuesday. So there likely will be little to no edge left after tomorrow. Sally Swain and I had a nice flock of 72 Stilt Sandpiper, 3 Bairds, 4 Semipalmated Sands and 7 American Avocets at 11 am. Good Sept.
