 From Mardi & Towny Dickinson:
2/24 - Westport, Compo Beach -- 15+ Ruddy Turnstones, 2 Purple  
Sandpipers on sandbar.
	   Westport, Sherwood Island Connector -- 75+ Common Grackles.

	   Southport, Sacco Creek -- 100 Ruddy Turnstones, 21 Black-bellied  
Plovers on the flats

Norwalk Beaches were very quiet today and nothing of note to report  
when we were out at least.
Dennis Varza's survey #135 today was very interesting as always with  
his stats. Perhaps our
findings will also contribute to your ongoing information for this  
area. Thanks Dennis.
