JULY 25, 2009 - SUPER-HIGH TIDE (predicted for 4:06 p.m.) at 4:30  
p.m. in Wolfville Harbour -- shorebirds seen roosting in rocks along  
railroad tracks were at least 4 WILLETS and at least 11 GREATER  
YELLOWLEGS, plus at least 3 PEEPS, one of which was a LEAST  
SANDPIPER.  Even though the yellowlegs were not very vocal, I'm sure  
of their identities as greaters from their sizes as they flew with  
the willets.  Ordinarily I find the two yellowlegs very difficult to  
distinguish.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
