   "Conditions at Dekorte are currently excellent for shorebirds.
   "Large #'s continue today (mostly Lesser Yellowlegs and Least Sands) with Lesser #'s of Greater Yellowlegs, Semi Sands, at least 3 WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPERS, 6+ DUNLIN, and 2 SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHERS.

   "Also seen were a PEREGRINE FALCON and FORSTER'S TERNS."  (Thanks, Rob!)
