This evening there were four Upland Sandpipers together just south of Mokane Road (CR 4038) approaching the defunct bridge. I heard them quip-ip-ipping and was able to find them for photos. The exact location was 1 mile east of CR 4033. I also heard a Grasshopper Sparrow from this point; they breed in that location every year.
Mokane Road is already full of Lark Sparrows and had several Scissor-tailed Flycatchers perched along it. A flock of more than 100 American Golden-Plovers fed in a field east of the trailer home, which is between CRs 4035 and 4033. The Mokane Road hotspot is really starting to show off.
Good birding everyone,
Pete
