Three around today. The adult was on it's own early afternoon but then a juvenile flew in. Mid-afternoon a Kestrel hovering just above spooked them and they disappeared up the Creek. An hour later what looked to be a different juvenile flew in. Four Ruff were present. One in particular repeatedly chased the Curlew Sandpipers around.
