Newburg Road Pond and Regency Ponds ~ August 31, 2022

After supper, I headed over to the Newburg Road retention pond. The adjacent fields held Killdeer and what appeared to be the same group of 18 Horned Larks.
From there, I drove over to the Regency ponds and found 4 Lesser Yellowlegs among Killdeer, despite the pretty full ponds leaving very little shorebird habitat. The Pied-billed Grebe and a Great Blue Heron were in the north pond and a young Green Heron was in the south pond.

After it turned around, it did a wing stretch.

At sunset, I started scanning the horizon for Common Nighthawks. I ended up spotting eight of them, but only managed a few poor photos because of the low light conditions.
