Observation details
Continuing near the observation platform at blackbird marsh. Birds were actually feeding in the shallow water at the edge of Lake Sherry, I believe. Medium sized brown speckled waders with long thick bills. First thought they were feeding on large snails, but it appears to be small bivalves in the photos. Two of the zoomed out photos show both birds at once. From what I can tell, someone reported 2 limpkins earlier today, but prior to that only one had always been reported. I wonder if this second bird had always been nearby or was a later arrival.
