Susan, Stu, and I made a late trip up the lake yesterday. We ran into Mike and his wife at Dave's in Savannah and, thanks to their directions, were able to quickly find the Eurasian Wigeon at Van Dyne Spoor Rd. and the Black-belied Plovers and calling American Bittern at Carncross Rd. Our addition to the Carncross sightings were two SEMIPALMATED PLOVERS in the vicinity of the Black-bellieds.
