Members: A REKN banded in San Antonio Oeste, Rio Negro, Argentina and last
sighted there Friday 4, May (Patricia Gonzalez) was resighted yesterday
11, May in Ft. George Inlet, Duval Co, FL. This interval beats the
previous record of Fo[H3H] by two days. It is even possible that the bird
arrived the prior day, but a Fo knot detected on Thursday was observed
briefly before flushing away before the code could be read and the bird
was not resighted during the inlet survey.

The inlet shoal is quite broad and expansive and characterized by abundant
pot holes and sloughs and foraging knots are easily concealed from view.
Even following yesterday's initial sighting of Fo[X6T](shortly after
dawn), some time was required to relocate the bird for photo-
documentation.
