With the Connecticut River low, we stopped briefly ~3pm at Ledyard
Bridge for a look-see. The highlights:
Green Heron - flying, then nice looks while perched in a tree at south end
3 Solitary Sandpipers together
Also, possible Orchard Oriole seen briefly perched near RR tracks.
Overall green color caught my attention; at home, confidence increased
seeing that only Orchard Orioles show contrasting gray back plumage
while flying. Worth checking again for!
