Weather: Sunny with a slight overcast.
Overview:
We arrived at 9:00, and quickly drove to the West End. Where the Baird's and Buff-breasted Sandpiper were yesterday. We quickly found the Baird's Sandpiper. Lifer #231! I grabbed some shots of the bird. Then we went to the West End Fields to look for the Buff-breasted Sandpiper. We searched for a while but no luck. We then went to Meigs Point. Where there was a bunch of Canadian Geese and Tree Swallows. A few Ring-billed, Herring, and Great black-backed Gull were in the flock, but no Buffy Sandpiper! I looked at the pond on the right of the Meigs Point parking lot and found a Little Blue Heron, a new county bird. We left Meig's Point to go back to see the Baird's Sandpiper and look again for the Buffy. No luck with the Buffy. So we left. UPDATE: AS I AM WRITING THIS POST SOMEBODY FOUND THE BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER!!!.
