Henderson County Update



Folks,
        This AM the Henderson County Bird Club led by Simon Thompson had a
walk on Hooper Lane.  Birds of  note were: 200+ American Pipits    12-15
LAPLAND LONGSPURS    1 LINCOLN'S SPARROW
1 VERY LATE BAIRD'S SANDPIPER spotted by Les Sauscier.  The Baird's was a
juvenile who walked with a significient limp.  It appeared to feed and fly
with no problems.  My previous late date for this species in Henderson
County was Sept. 23.  I was able to obtain very good video of this bird.  On
the way home, I had 4 Greater Yellowlegs on the pond in front of the water
treatment plant on #191.
Regards,
Wayne
