A few of us who had staked out the known location of the Black-necked Stilt were just now rewarded with satisfying views after patiently sitting it out for several hours. The bird did not stick around for more than 10 mins after we saw it and was last seen heading in the direction of Point Lookout. I will check on my way out to see if I could find where else it hangs out.
Many thanks to Fliepe Pimental who spotted the Black-necked Stilt feeding near the entrance booth entrance at Nickerson and then conveyed that to Harry Taylor and I. Also, thanks to Robert Proniewych for his intel and Tom Fiore who generously took the time to post to the list serves. The two American Golden-Plovers also continues in the same location as earlier reported. Sharing is caring!
