I also went to the East Pond today, and will add to Andrew's email only that on the way out, near the south side entrance, I came across a Western Sandpiper mixed in with a flock of Leasts and Semis. Thank you to Andrew for looking at my photo and helping me clinch the ID! Good Birding, Tripper

I spent the morning on the East Pond at Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge, birding the entire pond. The overall shorebird numbers continue to remain low. However, peeps are increasing led by Least Sandpipers. A total of 10 species of shorebirds with 1 STILT SANDPIPER being the highlight. Nothing
