After observing these birds more carefully this afternoon, I am changing my
report from Greater Yellowlegs to Stilt Sandpipers at Walter S. Davis Marsh.
They took a break from feeding just now and the bills are slightly dropped and
both birds have distinct eyebrows.

This Friday morning I checked the main sod farm field at Bells Bend,
which along with 53 KILLDEER produced 2 continuing BUFF-BREASTED
SANDPIPERs and 3 LEAST SANDPIPERs.
At the Walter S. Davis Blvd Marsh near the Tenn. St. U. campus
there was a single WILLET, likely left over from yesterday, as at
least one was seen through yesterday afternoon, plus a single LEAST
SANDPIPER and some ever present KILLDEER. Three BLUE-WINGED TEAL
were there with about 18 WOOD DUCKs and some MALLARDs.
