[SBB] Continuing Blackpoll Warbler & Ruff(s)



All,
 
Frank Vanslager and I first re-found the BLACKPOLL WARBLER at 8:34 this morning and  as Kathy Parker said it was well seen by many as the morning progressed (sightings slowing down around 11) .  Afterwards Frank and I made a quick trip out the RR tracks in New Chicago Marsh where we found the "healthy" RUFF near the tracks about 100 YDS past the first pond on the right while the "gimpy" Ruff was found much further out near where the track starts to curve left.  The limp on this Ruff is now much less noticeable than before but it also seems to be much more nervous than the other Ruff.  Gimpy flew several times as we watched; anything coming near her seemed to spook her and she was last seen in the far northwestern corner of the marsh.  The other Ruff does not seem to be bothered by people moving as close as 20-30 feet from it.  Also, five SNOWY PLOVER were in the last pond on the left at the RR junction.   
 
Take care,
Bob Reiling
