John Cecil and I birded around Saylorville this morning. The main lake was pretty quiet except for pelicans, Ring-billed and Franklin's gulls. Jester was much birdier with the following highlights: 2 Forster's Terns3 Black-bellied Plovers37 American Golden-Plovers1 Hudsonian Godwit21 Sanderling15 Buff-breasted Sandpipers1 Peregrine Falcon We also had a group of 5 golden-plovers at Errington Marsh.
