Well, perhaps not, but I've never seen as many Killdeer (39 total) 
concentrated in a relatively small area as I did this morning.  They 
included:

Ompompanoosuc River mouth - 2 on the ice on NH side
Pompy Flats - 26 on the ice, some of them foraging for prey I couldn't 
see, let alone identify
Pirouette Farm/Hogback Road - 13 huddled around ice-bound pools at 
bottom of the snow-covered fields
Campbell Flats - 5, also on frozen pools

No other birds of real note, though the Horned Grebe was still present 
at Kendall Station.  An immature drake Common Goldeneye was off the 
Ompompanoosuc Rivermouth.
