West Jay Road Pond, Ozaukee County, WI, US - eBird Hotspot
Habitat: Cropland, Mudflats
Best Birds: An ephemeral pond on the north side of the road in spring attracts a limited waterfowl population, but often shorebirds such as Wilson’s Phalarope (has bred here), Short-billed Dowitcher, White-rumped Sandpiper, and Semipalmated Plover. Lapland Longspur may be found on the mudflats in spring. The south side of the road holds water longer; look for Wilson’s Phalarope and Lesser Yellowlegs in the persistent vegetation.
Directions: 14 miles NW of Port Washington, and two miles SWt of Random Lake on Jay Rd, immediately east of Oriole Lane.
