Hi all

yesterday afternoon, Sept 1. Tide was high and although relatively =
speaking there were not a lot of shorebirds, included in the assembly, =
there were 2 Buff-breasted Sandpipers and a Baird's Sandpiper. Steve and =
Amber Vines appeared out of the fog and joined me in observing these 2 =
shorebirds which are uncommon in our area. Complete eBird report posted =
below.=20

cheers
Ken
