Birding bud Maria Loukeris notified me, and Linda Scrima followed up by reporting the bird on the Mearns Bird Club app in the afternoon. I headed to the loop right after work. I hustled to the west side, but when I arrived there was no sign of the bird. Fortunately I ran into Ronnie DiLorenzo, who let me know the bird had relocated to the southernmost pond in the loop. I once again hustled to the back pond and this time I got lucky and the bird was not only present, but not too far out. This is the second straight Monday where I got an absolutely fabulous shorebird &#8211; it&#8217;s definitely a good cure for a bad case of the Mondays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2-1200x1200.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/orangebirding.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/082222-MAGO-2.jpg 1505w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>~Wow!
