Observation details

At least 60 American Golden Plovers in a mixed flock with Pectoral Sandpipers. Several individuals feeding in the field were pointed out to me by Satchell and Kevin. After watching these for a few minutes, the mixed flock came in and flew in circles over the field before settling in wet area with snipes and killdeer. Continuing mixed flock.
