I had one Lesser Yellowlegs and one Least Sandpiper at 0730h @ Myers Pt. this
morning. Neither stayed very long. The peep was attempting forage amongst the
forest of Canada Goose legs that were studding the point. The Yellowlegs was
in the little side pool off and took off up the lake tooting as soon as I got
out of my vehicle.
