Presumably the same two juvenile Piping Plovers still in the area (closer to westernmost Point Lookout jetty) today. One of them is banded -- gray over blue on the right leg and yellow over white on the left leg. My previous late date is Sept. 4 (2011, Cupsogue).

I believe it's a couple of weeks late for them to still be here. According to NYC Bird Report, the latest date they were reported at Breezy Point was August 15.
