Shorebirds continue with the continued personal best numbers of Short-billed
Dowitcher. All dowitcher this fall have been hendersoni except for one
questionable griseus yesterday and a noticeably larger dowitcher(compared to
others around it) that was sleeping that after the fact I thought could have
been a Long-billed last week.
