Hi everyone, This morning I found a pair of what I believe to be greater yellowlegs at Jennings Pond. They are sitting on the beaver lodge in the NW corner of the pond (the end nearer to Bald Hill Rd). The plumage is dark but they have yellow (not green) legs and showed white rump patches when flushed from the pond edge at Bald Hill Rd. The bills look slightly upturned, so I'm thinking these are greater rather than lesser yellowlegs. The birds were still there when I left the pond a few minutes ago. So if you are in the Danby area, feel free to check them out. For what it is worth, there's also a pied-billed grebe paddling around the same corner of the pond.
