Hi Everyone,
When I heard about the Dillon Purple Sandpiper, I was very curious about how it
came to be there. I have an idea of where it trying to go. A couple of winters
ago, I was birding in San Blas on the west coast of Mexico. I found out there
was a Purple Sandpiper wintering at the jetty there with Surfbiirds and Ruddy
Turnstones. I was able to get nice looks at it. It would be worth finding out
if it also overwintered last year. If so, it seems not unreasonable that the
Dillon bird was on its way back to San Blas and got caught in the weather.
Be safe out there if you chase it.
