I was unable to find the Buff-breasted Sandpiper on the WCR 105 pond at 1:30 PM on Sunday, September 7. Just after I arrived a Prairie Falcon flew over the pond and about 6 peeps scattered and flew southeast. I stayed at the pond for 45 minutes but no birds returned. I did see four brightly colored Savannah Sparrows.
