I visited the drawn down Lewis Lake just East of Brownton on Hwy 212, previously reported by Pete Hoeger and spotted 2 Black-bellied and approximately 25 American Golden-Plovers. Also present were 4 Pectoral Sandpipers, 3 Greater Yellowlegs and a flock of peeps flying that I could not identify. There was also an amazing large flock of Green-winged and Blue-winged Teal with 1 Northern Pintail, 3 Northern Shovelers and many Mallards. Lewis Lake is on the North side of HWY 212 and approximately 1 mile East of Brownton and 1/4 mile West of Nature Ave./McLeod Count Hwy 4. This is a very busy highway and there is not much of a shoulder so try to pull off most of the pavement for safety.
