Hey Everybirdy,

  Biolab Road, about midway on the west side had a group  of 8 Willets and 10
Pectoral Sandpipers scattered around.
  Heading south on Shiloh marsh Road, the wide open area  with real shallow
water, about 2 miles in had a nice  assortment:
15 Black-bellied Plovers (most still in alternate  plumage)
200+ Least Sandpipers (50-50 split of jv's and  adults)
20 Semipalmated Plovers
3 Western Sandpipers
50+ Semipalmated Sandpipers
  about 3 miles in +, scattered along the lagoon side,  were:
100+ Least sandpipers
28+ Western Sandpipers (several worn adults but mostly appeared  to be
juveniles)
6+ Ruddy Turnstones
3 Killdeer
7 +Semipalmated Plovers
  While exiting the refuge, I stopped along the south edge  of Parrish Park
causeway and in spite of all the fishing traffic all day long,  shorebirds
found their way back in late afternoon:
10 Pectoral Sandpipers
8 Semipalmated Sandpipers (6 juveniles)
20+ Least Sandpipers
4 Semipalmated Plovers

See you out there!
