Sloans Lake storm fallout (Marbled Godwit, Stilt Sandpiper) Denver County

[PH Stoltz]

On a quick lunch run to Sloans Lake, the storm fallout was impressive.  I saw a Marbled Godwit and a Stilt Sandpiper.  Several more sandpipers as well, including a Least, and potentially a Pectoral (need to check my pictures). 

Non-rarities, but still of interest: a big group of yellow-headed blackbirds, an even bigger group of killdeer (I counted at least 20), three grebes (I'm happy to call them eared, but did not make a careful ID), one empid that I couldn't ID hopping along the rocks.

This was all on the north shore, between Wolff and Sheridan.

I'll get an ebird list with some mediocre pictures posted soon.

Thanks,

Peter Stoltz
