Spent a relaxing evening scoping out the shorebirds at Cardinal Marsh.
Conditions on segment 2 are outstanding right now. Good variety and
numbers, including least sandpiper, semipalmated sandpiper, pectoral
sandpiper, spotted sandpiper, solitary sandpiper and stilt sandpiper.
Both lesser and greater yellowlegs wading around. Killdeer very
plentiful and quite colorful in the setting sun. Sandhill cranes and
sora rails were a bonus.
