I stopped by Eagle Bend Hatchery in Clinton this morn. ~7:30.  Very
little shorebird activity (1 Pectoral SP, a small flying flock of
who-knows-what).

Most interesting, though is what appears to me (at the 90% confidence
level) to be an imm. Little blue Heron.  The bird is hanging around,
and in, the concrete irrigation ditch to the right of the road just
past the office bldg.  I would be inerested in hearing from others who
visit there to see if anyone else sees and IDs it.  It may be an imm.
Snowy Egret, but several points argue against that.  I wont bias
others with the points that make me think that it's a Little Blue.
