Sure, we're always looking for curlew sandpipers, you say. But might we
sloppily scan a distant flock of dunlins and miss one of these?

has nice photos of an alternate adult kindly contributed by a New Jersey

Just checking. And if you find one, make sure to tell Jen Brumfield
about it; I hear she's been looking a long time for one...
