This isn't much more than a large mud puddle in a pasture that cows often wade in. However, this pond has attracted a surprising variety of migrating shorebirds including Killdeer, Stilt Sandpiper, Least Sandpiper, Baird's Sandpiper, Spotted Sandpiper, Solitary Sandpiper as well as some rare visits by Western Sandpiper, Wilson's Phalarope, Red-necked Phalarope, Sanderling, Semipalmated Plover, and Short-billed Dowitcher. The pond lies right next to Mt Vernon Road. Park off the road in the grass opposite the pond.
