Upland Sandpipers

Wednesday April 18th

Burrowing Owl today at Festival Park, Cape Coral

The first couple of weeks of April were a bit frustrating as far as how the Spring Migration has progressed. But as of Sunday birding activity has certainly picked up.

Today we had an unusual sighting of a flock of upland sandpipers in north Cape Coral. They were first reported by Alli Smith and have been  feeding and resting in the grassy, Festival Park location, were  we would normally be looking for resident Florida Scrub Jays and Burrowing Owls.
