I met Greg Smith as he was leaving and I was going in to see the Ruff this afternoon. He kindly pointed it out to me. Good thing, I was sort of expecting breeding plumage and the Ruff was well into transition to alternate plumage but recognizable. Plenty of other good birds around, A Glossy Ibis came in, at least two Forster's Terns, Least Sandpipers, a Common Tern, Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs et al but no Gull-billed Tern.
