Liz Harper and I just found a record late Pectoral Sandpiper in the Grey Cloud

To view this bird you have to walk past no trespass signs. Aggregate Industries
is fussy about trespassing.

This is the first winter record for the state in over 40 years, the last winter
record being in 1976.
Still present as of 1:30 thanks to Greg Jahner III.
