Sighting

Continuing Harris's Hawk in same alfalfa fields where originally found off of Schober Lane. Sunday morning. Also at the pond south of sewer ponds a possible Lesser Yellowlegs. With several Snipe. Slightly larger in height than the Snipe, but appeared to be a lighter weight bird. Strait bill only slightly longer than head. Actively feeding. Did not call. Seems late for Lesser Legs. Lovely bird, Tringa rule.
