After driving the main pool and finding water and quite a few shorebirds at Bennington Marsh (but nothing unusual) Except for a bathing Merlin We moved onto Towpath Road and struck out on the Yellow-crowned Night Heron. Moving to East Road we failed to find the Curlew Sandpiper or any phalaropes. We were, however rewarded when Joann noticed a smaller white heron coming out of the purple loosestrife. It lifted its head and jumped up onto the vegetation so we and 3 other observers could easily see all the field marks of an imm Little Blue Heron. After a few minutes we watched it fly off to the north (Wayne County) where we hope it spent the night with plans to return tomorrow.
