[Birdtalk] Fw: eBird Report - Farmington Bay WMA , 11/13/08

[Doug Roberts]

Hi All,
I had a great time at Farmington Bay today. I even had time to fall asleep at the wheel (while parked). When I woke up, there were a dozen little birds flitting around in the mud puddles in the plowed ground, 100 feet east of Glover Pond. I think they were Least Sandpipers. Is that possible?
Here's my list.
