Yes, All this sniping can get ruff (I suppose it could be courser, but that really would be out of order, murre or less anyway). If you take this thing too far you could end up Alle alone – solitary – or else get shoved and fall down on your Cox’s.
In any case, be careful of the changing weather out there on the flats – the sun is bright now so you should wear sunscreen to avoid red shanks or swollen, thick knees – but in case it gets cold and windy you’ll want to a plover (your own or something you’ve Least) – but even then be careful, if it’s very loose clothing (i.e., not a windbreaker but a garment you’d Calidris) you’re taking a risk, since the wind can blow it off altogether, leaving you Baird. Okay, enough piping up, not another peep, but there are so many others, willet ever end?

Despite looking at the images from the field on my phone I have to respectfully disagree with the “presumed” hybrid call on the bird you referenced. This to me, is just a Semipalmated Sandpiper (SESA). I agree it is a tad heavily marked below but nothing in the structure or bill is suggestive of a Western hybrid with a SESA. I certainly claim no expertise; however, my time having Semipalmated Sandpipers in the hand and field observations, I have learned to appreciate variation in plumage and size. The plumage on this bird in my opinion is within the range of just a straight up Semipalmated Sandpiper. When I have a chance, I will take a look on a bigger screen and perhaps provide more details.

It was first photographed by Peter Post on Saturday and observed by Kevin Karlson (co-author of The Shorebird Guide). I was able to relocate and photograph the bird on Sunday, then discuss it with Kevin. He’s of the opinion that it’s a hybrid between Western and Semipalmated Sandpipers. In simplest terms, he described it as having the upperparts of a Semipalmated and the underparts of a Western. The bird is extensively marked underneath, not only along the flanks, but on the belly. Semipalmated would never be like that. And actually, neither species should be so extensively marked this late. The bill looks like that of a Semipalmated, while the head shows a squared look more typical of a Western. Pictures can be seen at my web site <https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fstevewalternature.com%2F&data=01%7C01%7Csweet%40amnh.org%7C9bf27d68d5ba48b4642508d60c6b04f3%7Cbe0003e8c6b9496883aeb34586974b76%7C0&sdata=yFKXjNqgTqPAqo7CMy2t09rLKPDvnuVf38aufR%2FWEaU%3D&reserved=0> http://stevewalternature.com/ under Birds, Recent Work. For the record, other weekend birds at Jamaica Bay other than the much ballyhooed Hudsonian Godwit, include 1 Caspian Tern on the pond Saturday and 2 fly bys Sunday, at least one juvenile Western Sandpiper both days, many White-rumped Sandpipers, and Stilt Sandpiper now starting to appear in the juvenile form. A Common Raven was seen by many, soaring over the visitor center Saturday. The water level is decidedly on the high side, but there’s enough room for birds and people. Getting to the raunt requires walking through water in places. Note that the safest passage is sometimes well away from the edge of the pond. There are two deeper puddles that reach the phragmites in the southeast corner. Do not walk along their edges. And also watch out for the Salt Marsh Fleabane, if you can. These plants are in full bloom now and adding a touch of beauty to the pond. And if you pay close enough attention to the bright pink flowers, you just might be rewarded with the sight of a Salt Marsh Skipper.
