Observation details
**Continuing rarity. We first scoped it from the wooden deck at the parking lot, seeing it at great distance. By the time we walked out to the flats it had gone MIA, but after about an hour and half birding the flats, it flew in (apparently from the west) at 13:35 as the tide was rising its nadir. We watched it preen and forage for about forty minutes before leaving. Photos, video.
