Sorry for the late post. Larue St. Clair, Jackie Bakker, and Chuck Gibson reported yesterday morning three unidentified shorebirds on the wildlife drive at Montezuma NWR that they think may have been RED KNOTS. The birds were in the first pool along I90 (just after Benning Marsh, it sounds like). If knots, they were apparently not in breeding pluamge as they did not appear as red as once would expect, but size and shape indicated they might be knots. Those are all the details I have, but if anyone is in the area today it would be worth taking a look, and please post if you find them! Two Ruddy Turnstones and a few peeps and Semipalmated Plovers were also around.
