August 11 - White's Bog for Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher

This morning Bill and I went down to Burlington County's spot known as White's Bogs.  This location is a giant cranberry bog.   Amongst the growing fields and dikes a Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher had been reported for about one week now.
We found the spot fairly easy and within 15 minutes we go on the bird.  It appears to be a young bird.  This is my second sighting of this species within New Jersey.

We briefly saw a Baird's Sandpiper here, as well as too many Solitary Sandpipers to count !!.
