\"This<\/a>
This Solitary Sandpiper was the only shorebird close enough for decent photos. Liberty Loop, 7\/24\/14.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

QUICK POST: I made a brief stop at the Liberty Loop after work – shorebird numbers were slightly down but still considerable. The big news was the addition of a Pectoral Sandpiper, my FOS. Here’s my list for the day, more guesstimates than counting as I did not have tons of time:<\/p>\n

Killdeer:\u00a015
\nSpotted Sandpiper:\u00a02
\nSolitary Sandpiper:\u00a02
\nLesser Yellowlegs: 1
\nSemipalmated Sandpiper:\u00a01
\nLeast Sandpiper:\u00a025
\nPECTORAL SANDPIPER: 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
