Sorry for posting this a day late, but here is an update on Chaska Lake shorebirds. Yesterday a total of 254 shorebirds was present on the mudflats, with 6 species represented: Greater Yellowlegs, Lesser Yellowlegs, Solitary Sandpiper, Least Sandpiper, Stilt Sandpiper, and Killdeer. The vast majority were Lesser Yellowlegs and Least Sandpiper, but a search through the flock produced other species. A scope is a necessity.
