There seems to be a fair amount of turnover at this site. We checked it this morning and then again toward evening but the Whimbrels reported by Bill Broderick in the early afternoon were not there for us. Changes from yesterday include fewer Pectoral Sandpipers and Short-billed Dowitchers, no Greater Yellowlegs, a few more Lesser Yellowlegs and Semi. Plovers, two Stilt Sandpipers (versus one yesterday), a Spotted and a Solitary Sandpiper today. The Semi and the Least Sandpiper numbers were not very different from yesterday. With the Whimbrels, that's 13 species of shorebirds at this site this weekend.
Good birding!
