In case anyone is interested, Matt Medler just let me know that he checked the auto loop on his way out of town this morning and did not find any Whimbrel. Sounds like they weren't seen by a few observers yesterday evening either, so perhaps they all took off before the storms started movin in. Stuart Krasnoff and I spent an extremely uneventful two hours at Myers this morning, where we saw almost no birds moving up the lake. A Semipalmated Sandpiper materialized on the point for a few minutes, and a late RED-BREASTED MERGANSER was swimming in the middle of the lake, but otherwise it was very quiet.
