Brad Wilkinson and I had the Buff-breasted Sandpiper up to 6:20 PM where we left it with a small group of birders. If you don't see it right away, just wait a while. It likes to forage at the south end of the viewing area behind some islands of vegetation. To add to the growing list of birds seen today, we also had a Wilson's Phalarope among some Lesser Yellowlegs.

The bird was present fron 4:15 to 5:00, when the shorebirds were scattered by a passing raptor, and I was unable to refind it, although I am certain it's still present. FYI-It tended to keep to the drier areas, and was typically in the company of a group of Plovers.
