I have posted two videos (poor quality ones at that) on my blog ( http://birdingdude.blogspot.com/2016/06/jamaica-bay-wildlife-refuge-tale-of-two.html) showing what I am convinced is the same Ruff from the 25th and then re-found this AM by Robert Proniewych. I am fascinated because this is exactly a repeat of 2012 by what I am presuming is the same bird. I have mused about "reverse migration" or another site nearby that is hosting these birds when they disappear for a few days.
Other shorebirds on the East Pond this morning included, Greater Yellowlegs, Lesser Yellowlegs, Spotted Sandpiper, Killdeer, Eastern Willet, Least Sandpiper and American Oystercatcher. For those interested, last night I published an updated map of the East Pond which you could also access on my blog. Cheers, On Thu, Jun 30, 2016 at 10:37 AM, Robert A.
