Heckscher State Park

There have been reports of 3 Hudsonian Godwits at Heckscher State Park - I checked one day with Snouty and only found one, then went the day after and saw 2.  (he had seen the third one before I arrived)  Also present were the continuing Long Billed Dowitcher and Golden Plover and a Pectoral Sandpiper that I did not see.  The Godwits were in bad shape, the adult has a problem with it's foot, and one of the 2 juveniles has tumors on it's face and leg.
