I did a late afternoon run over to the Regency ponds. The pair of Blue-winged Teal continued in the south pond.
Over at the north pond, the 3 Pectoral Sandpipers and the Lesser Yellowlegs continued.
Scoping the rest of the pond revealed 5 Green-winged Teal and 3 Wilson's Snipe.
I stopped at Green Pond on the way home. The Wilson's Snipe was again in the retention pond along Farmersville Road.
The male Blue-winged Teal was still in the back middle pond feeding with a pair of Mallards.
Along Green Pond Road, I noticed a bird on a wire, which turned out to be a female American Kestrel. I had seen American Kestrels many times at Green Pond long before eBird and the development existed but apparently had never written down any of the dates, so this was my first "official" American Kestrel for Green Pond, my 181st species for the site!
