During the hour and a half I birded the right-angled island near the northeast corner of the west pond, the PECTORAL SANDPIPER stood up once. While I waited for the shorebirds to return after being flushed by the Turkey Vulture, 6 BLACK TERNS flew over the north end of the pond. Later a single Black Tern flew directly over me. A VIRGINIA RAIL loitered below the willows near the radar station. The RUFF in New Chicago Marsh continued this afternoon mostly behind vegetation between the first 2 ponds east of the railroad tracks north of the entrance to the Don Edwards Environmental Education Center. Kathy Robertson spotted the Ruff at 1:40 P.M. I continued my walk north along the tracks almost to the junction. A single SNOWY PLOVER foraged south of the tracks where Roland Kenner and Pat Kenny reported one yesterday. About 3:00 P.M. I left the Ruff in the good company of Al Eisner and passed a BURROWING OWL on my way back to the car.
