Subject: Whimbrel & Ross's Goose at Reardan Ponds


I had a Ross's Goose and a Whimbrel at The Reardan Ponds this morning. 
They were both near the WDFW parking lot on the East pond. The goose 
seemed to appear be shadowing a lone Canada Goose. Every time the the 
Canada moved, the Ross's follow it to the new location. I was studying 7 
Long-billed Dowithcher when a single Whimbrel flew in to join them. My 
first Eastern Washington Whimbrel.

Good Birding,
