I observed the purple sandpiper at the reported location from about 4:15 - 5:00 PM this afternoon (Monday, 17 Oct 2011). I took several photos, including a flight photo with a nice look at the dark tail and rump. I posted several on the SDOU Facebook page. Ken Schumacher and company from Minneapolis were also there.
