Thanks Shai for this post with a link to photos. I was relieved when I saw the e-mail, since it saved me from trying to sort through and publish photos last night as I was just too exhausted to work on that.
I have not gotten through all of my photos or video clips, but I have managed to write up a post with some photos. If interested, the post with photos can be accessed here. http://birdingdude.blogspot.com/2014/08/common-ringed-plover-at-cupsogue-li-new.html Cheers, On Sun, Aug 24, 2014 at 9:34 PM, Shaibal Mitra <[email protected]> wrote: > Congratulations to Andrew for a tremendous find, and to Doug Futuyma, > who overcame feeling unwell to re-find the bird.
