A small lake in our neighborhood is being drained so that repairs can be
made on the dam.
As soon as the water went down enough to leave a muddy bank of no more than
3 ft. shorebirds started dropping in. Every morning there are more than an
dozen and so far of five species.
Pretty amazing how they manage to find this little temporary food source so
quickly.
