I also saw some of the "regulars"----the Pied-billed Grebe in the north pond and the Hooded Merganser in the south pond.
With the water levels in both ponds now much higher after the thunderstorms on Monday, there's no longer a muddy edge around them to hold shorebirds. The only shorebirds I saw were two Lesser Yellowlegs, which can handle the higher levels.
Three Indigo Buntings were seen along the edge of the woods north of the north pond.
I checked Green Pond right before sunset and found a Great Egret in the Green Pond Road retention pond, plus at least a hundred Northern Rough-winged Swallows zipping around the area.
