I located two Buff-breasted Sandpipers in NE Polk County early this evening (around 6pm). They were located just ½ mile from Red Lake and Pennington counties along a road that runs diagonal from the intersection of the three counties from northwest toward the southeast. The corner of the three counties (according to my maps) is two miles south of the northern border between Red Lake and Pennington counties. The signs at the intersection at the southeast end of the diagonal road are 370th Ave SE and 170th St SE. The birds were hanging out in a very short grass field at a very small (and growing smaller) wet spot that was very close to the road.
