What a difference a week makes. Last weekend at Ensley Bottoms  the
only shorebirds were the usual nesters, this weekend the Least  Sandpipers
showed up with the nos. estimated at 125+with 1 Western  Sandpiper tagging
along.
 
Five species of waterfowl were present including a Fulvous W.  Duck most
likely the same one found earlier this year.
 
In the borrow pits on the north side of Riverport Rd. 9  Yellow-crowned 
Night
Herons were taking advantage of the falling water to look for  mud bugs 
along
the muddy edges.
 
Good birding
