jerra wetlands Tuesday

[Martin Butterfield <>]

I presume they were Black-winged Stilts, rather than Banded Stilts.  There have been up to 14 B-wS  on the Hoskinstown Plain recently, but the habitat there is drying out so they might have moved to the Shoveler Pond..

I will leave it to A N Other to speculate on Shovelers (of either persuasion) on Stilts.
