I just wanted to add some details to the previous postings about the Stint. Today, when I first saw the bird, it was feeding among the Semipalmated Sandpipers west of the main tern loafing flats, between the two patches of marsh grasses at 10:20. As soon as the crowd had gathered it flew onto the main tern flats where it remained for a few minutes. Finally it flew in the direction of the parking lot where it was lost and never re-found despite many hours of continued searching by many.
I hope the bird sticks around for more to see.
