The Willet observed yesterday at noon was still present today at 7:30pm with good numbers of Lesser and Greater Yellowlegs, in flooded field on west side of 8th Line north of Britannia.
Also just south of this field and on east side of road I had one male Rusty Blackbird. It was singing and moving along the hedgerow trees and shrubs. The pale eye, and thin bill were clearly visible. Tail shorter than a Grackle's.
