Went to Walden Ponds this morning (6/5) and it appears that the county is raising the water level of Cottonwood Marsh. At one point I wanted to get from the Walden side to the Sawhill side and the ditch was full of running water.
There are a few birds that may be nesting at Cottonwood so the higher water levels could hamper their nests. There were quite a few Spotted Sandpipers around and 1-2 Red-necked Phalaropes. My question about the Red-necks is are they on their way to or from their breeding grounds? Any ideas?
