Hi everyone,
I found a very tame and photogenic purple sandpiper at 10:15 this morning
on the east beach of Rondeau Park.  It was about 100m south of Beach Access
8.  I just received word now (12:05) that it is still present right at the
end of Beach Access 9.........very close to where I found it.  This is just
south of the roundabout on Lakeshore Road.
