Observation details
Breeding plumage individual seen from the intersection of Ready Point Road and Route 9. Beautiful mid size shorebird, slightly larger then the Dunlin it was associated with. Mostly dark rufous plumage overall with slightly paler head and very obvious white area near the vent. Long down curved beak that is very similar in shape to that of the Dunlin. Appears to be the first record to be reported on eBird for New Castle County. It is a species that I always thought would show up here and looked for at this location on many occasions.
