Instead of waiting a week for a bird trips to finish and getting reports, I will transcribe telephone reports of current bird trips. Amy Davenport

After getting a telephone call about a Ruff at Jumbo Reservoir in Logan/Sedgwick County, Bryan & Sue Ehlmann, Richard Stevens and Rebecca Kosten rushed up there.
The Ruff was not relocated. The description by Roger Danka was consistent for a juvenile Ruff. Returning to Jumbo, Roger and all did find a Buff-breasted Sandpiper. While the two birds may look similar, Roger is certain that the Ruff he saw was bigger than the Buff-breasted Sandpiper found later in the day.
Many shorebirds were at the southeast corner of Jumbo Reservoir. Others included a Pectoral Sandpiper, two Semipalmated Plovers, Western Sandpipers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, three Least Sandpipers and Baird's Sandpipers.
Bryan found a Canada Warbler at the eastern Campgrounds. Richard found a Red-eyed Vireo. An American Redstart was along the north side of Jumbo.
At Red Lion Wildlife Area and Little Jumbo Reservoir, they found a male Blackburnian Warbler and Tennessee Warbler.
