Stilt Sandpiper in Dakota County
2016-08-18

Uncommon in Dakota County in the Fall season

One of 15 Stilts at Jirik Sod Farms (on Blaine Ave, east of Farmington) this afternoon, along with Lesser Yellowlegs, Least, Baird's, and Pectoral Sandpipers, and Killdeers. While most were out further, this one and several others were very close to the road.
