The bird was still there as of 2:45. It is ridiculously close and is probably the best look I have ever had of a Dovekie. It's been feeding actively at the north end of a channel at the western end of the park/golf course, north of the Marine police(?) facility which is at the southern end of the road, adjacent to the bay. It's been near a yellow box that has a loud electrical hum. Great find Ken and thanks to Shai for directions
