I decided to do a run to the ponds before an approaching line of storms got here. The Newburg Road retention pond produced a Great Blue Heron, a Green Heron, and a Killdeer among 350 Canada Geese, plus a Savannah Sparrow.
The Hollo Road pond held 12 Green-winged Teal, 2 Greater and 5 Lesser Yellowlegs, a Least Sandpiper, and a Cooper's Hawk that scattered the whole group.
The Tatamy Exit retention pond held 2 Killdeer, 9 Least Sandpipers, and a Pectoral Sandpiper.
When I pulled up to the intersection at Green Pond, I could see 3 Great Egrets and a Great Blue Heron there. Birds seen along the paved path included 4 Eastern Phoebes, 3 Northern Rough-winged Swallows, 8 Eastern Bluebirds, and 3 Chipping Sparrows. The retention pond along Green Pond Road held the continuing Solitary Sandpiper.
