Stopped by the blind at purgatory creek in Eden Prairie today.? Lots of gulls,
three pelicans, several killdeer, and at least one lesser yellowlegs.? There
was another shorebird out in the large mudflat with the gulls but I could not
get a good enough look at it with my scope.? Based on shape and bill length it
would be either lesser yellowlegs, stilt, or perhaps wilson's phalarope.? It
was doing the dowitcher thing with it's head (like a sewing machine.)? Perhaps
someone with a better scope will be able to get a good look at it.? Other than
that, there wasn't much of interest I saw in the little time I was there.
