The Triadelphia Lake Rd. shorebird extravaganza continued into this 
afternoon.  There was a large amount of churn, so, hooray, the goodies 
patronized both sides.

Least were quite abundant, as were Killdeer.

A lone Western visited both sides, and I noted at least two Semi-palmated 
Sandpipers that materialized on the Montgomery shore after a big flush on 
the Howard Side.  Two Baird's also appeared and showed white closely on the 
MontCo side.  I also noted a White-rumped and multiple Pectorals.  Early on 
I spotted two Lesser Yellowlegs on the MontCo side, but ceased to pay any 
further attention.  As I left, a female Wood Duck went squeaking downstream. 
A fellow in the parking lot (non-birder) informed me he'd seen a Bald Eagle, 
and an Osprey or two, but I did not observe any.
