More From Pickering Creek

The Pickering Center also has other wildlife besides birds. Here are two of the butterflies that were very numerous this summer. The one clearly had a tough summer.

And, then there is the small lizard.

Pickering Creek Audubon Center

This summer, we again took a quick road trip to the Pickering Creek Audubon Center on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. These photos show a number of Stilt Sandpipers, Short-billed Dowitchers, and Lesser Yellowlegs.

The third photo shows a pair of Lesser Yellowleg. I am relying on the posted siting of this bird, as it summers in Northern Canada and winters along the eastern US Atlantic coast.
