Observation details
*Rare. A visiting Floridian couple spotted this bird at the NPO and flagged down some other birders -- great luck for me as I was on my way out of the refuge. A life bird. The photos aren't particularly great, but should (hopefully) serve as decent record images. The ruff was feeding alongside the Yellowlegs from 10:00am (when I arrived) until about 10:15, when it flew south. It appeared to descend on the other side of the Hellcat dike.
