Saw the Sandhill crane outside Shelby at the Hooker's farm, Sat. Mr.
Hooker was a great bird host.
Stopped at Orangeburg Sod Farm for fun today. The 400 Pectoral sandpipers
were impresssive. I managed to miss the Golden Plover, but saw the
Buff-breasteds, Uplands, Snipe and a Least SP. Also 2 harriers, and a bald
eagle, and a ground dove. The Golden was seen by others.
Had hoped to get home in time to make a quick run down the beach, but it was
raining and I didn't try. Think the bridge is closed now except for
evacuation. Not much wind at all yet, still raining.
