Thanks to those who responded to my plea for help. With all the traveling I've been doing in the last couple months, I've posted help requests to a lot of different state lists, and this group was the most helpful of all. Not counting Killdeer, I saw exactly one shorebird over two days - a Spotted Sandpiper at White Lake Refuge. So that part of the birding experience was a resounding dud. There wasn't even anything on the sand across from the old Tiptonville ferry dock. However, there were a few other things that caught my attention. I don't know the area well enough to know what's interesting there, but these were some things that got me excited: WHITE LAKE REFUGE - Dyer County The highlight was a pair of Nashville Warblers. Also saw a Dickcissel hiding in a large swarm of Indigo Buntings and a flock of several hundred Cliff Swallows. PONDS AT 1-155 & GREAT RIVER RD. - Dyer County Good diversity of herons, including a Cattle Egret. OLD TIPTONVILLE FERRY DOCK - Lake County Bald Eagle on the sandbar, and 4 Black Terns flew down the river. Swallows were absolutely everywhere, including a few Bank Swallows, which was a lifer for me. I also ran into a large flock of passerines on some random dirt road in Lake County. (I'd give more detailed locality info if I had any idea where I was. Apparently they don't believe in road signs in Lake County.) Anyway, there was a Black-and-white Warbler singing a very strange song amongst a bunch of other common birds. The song started out with the typical "weesee weesee" and then went into a rather prolonged jumble. Also got a very brief look at an Empid that was very yellow, but I didn't feel like I saw it quite well enough to rule out Acadian. Are Yellow-bellied Flycatchers common migrants in this area?
