Hi All— On Saturday, Erika and I photographed a Baird’s Sandpiper at the Jirik Sod Farm in Dakota County. It behaved as though it was defending feeding territory, gaping and wing raising. Feeding are known for migrating shorebirds. The only other shorebirds nearby, however, were a single Short-billed Dowitchers and a few Killdeer. Photos of the Baird’s Sandpiper are on my blog this morning: http://dantallmansbirdblog.blogspot.com
