The Buff-breasted Sandpiper is still on the same field at Sideroad 15
and 11th Line n. of Beeton, east of Tottenham. See in previous email
below for Directions.
The bird blends in with the sand and can be elusive at times.
Also on the field were about 15 Golden Plover today. At least 3 were
juveniles.
