[birding] Finley: RED KNOT, WHIMBREL

[Snetsinger, Thomas]

Birders,
Just back from Finley (south side of Bruce Road) where the RED KNOT(S) (found this AM by Doug Robinson) was/were still being seen as of noonish and Rich and Nanette Armstrong and Paula Vanderheul had a pair of WHIMBRELS fly in. Not too often I can see two county birds in a day. Many thanks to Doug Robinson and the Armstrongs for sharing their sightings and scopes!
Cheers,
Tom Snetsinger
P.S. the knot(s) were/was last seen just west of the tractors on the south side of Bruce Road and the WHIMBRELS were along the channel about one third of the way to the tractors from Bruce Road (and a bit west of the tractors). Viewing conditions were bad with driving rain.
