We failed to find Clyde Blum's White-winged Dove at Swafford Pond on Upper East 
Valley Road this mid-morning and mid-afternoon.  We did see 2 Lesser 
Yellowlegs, 1 Spotted and 1 Solitary Sandpipers.  Ron Hoff and Dollyann Myers 
pulled up and told us that had seen the Scissor-tailed Flycatchers at the Akins 
Road utility pole nest and some Bobolinks in the field across Upper East Valley 
Road.  We saw 2 of each.  

On a utility wire at 11733 Lower East Valley Road, we saw 6 Bobolinks and 2 
Dickcissels at about noon.

We heard a Bobwhite calling at 2898 Upper East Valley Road at 2:05 p.m.
