This afternoon Bob, Susan, Ann, Stuart and myself enjoyed looking at shore birds on Carncross Rd. including Peeps, Semipalmated Plover, American Golden Plover, Black-bellied Plover and many Dunlin. A pair of Sandhill Cranes were in the far NW corner of the field leading around a pair of "too cute" colts. Some of the time the colts weren't tall enough to be seen above the grass, but when they're visible they look to good to be coyote food. They are definitely worth the time to spot.
