This morning, although the numbers of sandpipers at the Auburn Road
section of LaDue Reservoir wre low, I found two Bairds Sandpipers poking along in
the drier part of the mudflats.  I could see the longer wingtips extending 
past the tail feathers, the dark legs and plumage details that separated them
from the semipalmated sps.  

There were only a handful of peeps for comparison, and the Bairds were 
usually foraging by themselves.
