1 juvenile present on the beach in Hugh Town for several days and seen by many. Accepted by the British Birds Rarities Committee. See British Birds Vol. 80, No. 11, p. 536. From my field notes: "1 juv. Obviously stint-sized. But bigger than Little, more robust. Much less rufous and more greyish buff on head, uppers, wings. Darkish rufous streaky crown contrasting with white supercilium (not showing split effect of Little Stint. Bill long, black, blunt-tipped. Supercilium tapering strongly behind eye with upward inclination. Supercilia meeting above bill giving pale look to bird in head-on view. Ear covs, nape greyer buff. Mantle warm buffish grey streaked dark no obvious pale mantle "V". 2 rows upper scaps quite rich dark brown with rufous. Lowers scaps greyer buff brown more noticeably dark towards tip. Median + great covs + tertials similar though outer couple of scaps of lower rows with more distinct dark anchor shaped tips and midrib. Lesser covs drab grey brown, pale. Little primary ext. primaries blackish. Scaps, covs, tertials all edged off-white giving scaly effect. Legs short, drab olive-green-black. Webs between toes obvious when bird walking. Viewed down to 20 m using 25 x 60 Mirador in dull light. Unders all white except for grey buff breast sides with feint streaking not meeting across breast.
