Observation details

Continuing bird initially found by Michael Willison, https://ebird.org/checklist/S116083134 All white body with black legs and mostly black bill, which is black from lore turning gray then black to tip, black eye. Larry got there first and was observing the North pond. Joel and I arrived at the same time, and joined Larry. There were observations, but no LBHE. We decided to try the South pond where we found all sorts of sandpipers. We decided to split up and continue looking for the Little Blue. I went back to the North pond where I saw it on the South side, middle. The bird quickly took off to the West and then South before coming back to land on a tree. Larry and Joel observed it in the air and landing on the top of the tree. Photos provided
