Waterloo Rarities!

Waterloo has had a couple of good rarities show up in the past few weeks.  First the Snowy Egret, followed by a Buff-breasted Sandpiper found by Ken Burrell today on the Sod Farms just outside of the town.  This represents the first record for this species...ever!  I zipped up there after work today and found it after a few minutes of searching.  A beautiful bird, and my 234th bird species for the year!  Unfortunately I didn't have my camera with me today or I could have got some shots.  I will try again tomorrow to get some pictures of it.  Stay tuned!
