Thanks to Charlie Ewell's post, I was able to see the Ruff at sta-5 this morning. I arrived at 7:30am and found the Ruff by 7:45am. Its orange legs and scalloped wing coverts made it easy to distinguish from the Lesser Yellowlegs it was with. Later (at 9:15am) it was hanging with a group of Dunlin. About 4pm I decided to check out Spanish River Pk - Holy Cow! - 2 Swainson's Warblers, 3 Worm-eating Warblers and a Yellow-billed Cuckoo as well. Its nice to be in South FL rather than Chicago.
