Several of us had the HUDWIT in the pool at the refuge visitor’s center yesterday, early afternoon. Good looks from the balcony. About 15 minutes after being first seen it took off and flew NNE until we lost sight of it. It appeared to be heading towards K-M. We checked there an hour later and were unable to spot it. The visitor’s center pool held an ever-changing set of shorebirds: Long-billed Dowitchers, Stilt Sandpiper, and Dunlin.

It seems to be favoring a more vegetated area in the middle of the marsh but will come out to more open areas in the northast section occasionally.
