LImitations and Discovery

Well, I just went through a bit of realizing my limitations.  Turns out the
bird I just photographed in California probably isn't a Rock Sandpiper and
probably is a Wandering Tattler.  Now, for me the Wandering Tattler is a
life bird so it's not a terrible discovery.  The folks in California will be
a bit less excited about the tattler.  Oh well.......  It's really great
when you have enough photographic evidence to actually see one of your
mistakes and correct it.  That's part I feel good about.  Otherwise, it
would have been a wrong assumption that I carried with me for a long time.
So, where's the best place to go to see Rock Sandpiper ?  I just "have" to
see one now.

Good Birding,
