The Baird's Sandpiper was scared off by human activity after just a short while observing and photographing it. Chris, Tom Baptist and myself were unable to locate it again, unfortunately. It flew west and may still be around, but it was not relocated in our search of all of the west end puddles. The puddles have dried somewhat compared to Friday, but they are still present and always worth checking this time of year!
