Spent the afternoon in camp riling, and went toward the village and the village plots in the evening. There was no shorebird activity here at all, but several gray wagtails and lots of adults. The local Wogtail fledged between 9 and noon today, leaving one egg in the nest. Ant McKee said he saw 2 Ravens about noon. 14 July Stayed in the A.H writing notes.
