A Rough-leg has been reported by a few folks along Rt. 270 just before the Rt. 80 (Urbanna) exit, perched in a tree to the right (but it has only been seen a couple of times.) There are also Snow Buntings on the beach and adjacent short lawn area at Sandy Point State Park, just after the Bay Bridge.
