The highlight of this morning's walk on the dikes around Knox-Marsellus
Marsh at Montezuma NWR was a female-type RUFF that I picked out along the
grassy north edge of Knox-Marsellus. It gave good views and was still
present as we walked back around 11, probably decently viewable from East

Hi All,
Last night, Tim Lenz, Bob McGuire, and I saw the RUFF that has been seen in the
Montezuma area since Dave Nutter discovered it on Saturday, July 8. Like Dave,
we saw the bird briefly at dusk at Eaton Marsh on the Montezuma NWR auto-loop.
We had looked for the bird here and at Kips Islan
No ruff 6pm, but 3 close least bittern sightings Larue -- two seen at the
same time, and pretty sure the 3rd look was a third bird. Adults.

I looked at Eaton around noon and at Kipps around 2 pm. Few birds and lots of
heat waves, but doesn't mean it's not back in the corn stubble somewhere.

I think it's also possible to go one-on-one with someone through GroupMe.
Thus one could direct a question back to the reporter alone rather than a
broadcast message. Not sure how many people know this is possible.

I found this breeding plumaged Ruff at Larue’s Lagoon on the drive at MNWR. I
watched it for awhile. Then Mark Miller showed up and he took some more
photos. I posted it with BirdLog NA. I called others to come and look but
the bird flew off to the north.

The Ruff just flew with yellowlegs to the other side of the thruway and out
of sight, but is probably out on the mudflats on that side. The ibis is
still visible.
