Birds at Winslow Turf Farm in Scotland Neck, NC



	Yesterday afternoon at around 6PM, I birded the turf farm in Scotland
Neck, NC, with my family.  Birds seen were:

Killdeer >100
Semipalmated Plover  1
Mourning Dove  50
peep (Semipalmated and Least Sandpipers) 20
White-rumped Sandpiper  1
Pectoral Sandpiper 30
Lesser Yellowlegs  50
Golden Plover  1  (still in partial breeding plumage)
Buff-breasted Sandpiper  1
Northern Phalarope  1
Black Tern  1 (flew in, circled once, and left)
dowitcher  1
Mallard  1

	The double digit numbers are conservative. When it was almost dark a
bird flew in that I thought was a Black-bellied Plover, but there was
disagreement on whether that was true or that the bird was just the Golden
Plover we had seen earlier.
