folks,

I think Angus' post on the Ruff was the first to naturens, so I'll add some
more context. It was seen and photographed 3 times at Miner's Marsh
yesterday: twice in the morning and once at 3:45 pm. Several birders have
reported it from the Marsh this morning, on the exposed shorelines in the
west pond (just over the bridge). Even though the shorelines do not seem
that far from any spot, a scope is helpful for distinguishing the
shorebirds. The Ruff is in interesting plumage and some examples can be
seen on the Miner's Marsh and Atlantic Canada Birding Facebook page, or on
these eBird checklists:
