[cobirds] Ruddy Turnstone in Bent County

Birders,

I heard and saw a Ruddy Turnstone on April 21 at Plover Point on the
north side of John Martin Reservoir. Plover Point is the second point
west of the boundary between JM State Park and JM SWA. It's base is
marked by large boulders and a trench. The Turnstone was on the tip of
the point just beyond a field fence put up in 2017 for predator control,
and does not mark a closure.

Two unprotected Piping Plovers were on the mainland adjacent to Gravel
Island, the large island just west of Plover Point. Please give them
space and approach on foot.
