Observation details
Located the bird previously found by Ed Kittredge and Bette Robo--thanks to Nick Tepper for the post about location. Foraging about 50-75 feet farther down the dike than yesterday's spot. Mostly feeding, but also preening and stretching wings. Seems like an exhausted and hungry migrant. Unconcerned by our presence, though it was on alert when an official's truck drove above us on top of the dike. Photos.
