Observation details
Reported 8/24 by Stefan Schlick. His dropped pin accurate. Bird found on north side of Damon Point (walking out: water on your left, sandspit on your right). First seen at line of "no dogs" signs. Distinctive white rump/tail makes bird easy to spot in flight. Bird prefers to land on driftwood at sand/grass interface. Very flighty! Our closest approach was ~80 feet, and bird typically flushed as we got to within 100 feet. We watched and followed the bird for 30 minutes before losing it in the grass.
