Ray Cummins, Larrry Piatt , and I birded the Sedan area in Appanoose County after work this afternoon. We had 700 Pectoral, 8 Semi-palmated Plover, 50 Long-billed Dowithchers, 2 Wilson's Phalaropes, 50 Greater and 500 Lesser Yellowlegs along with one Peregrine Falcon at the Dean wetlands. Along the way we had one Eastern Kingbird and a Great Egret. This a.m. I heard and saw a Rose-breasted Grosbeak at home and my wife had a Scarlet Tanager later in the morning at our yard and Mike Stephens reported a Scarlet Tanager in his yard also this morning.
