I got a call from Ray Kiddy who got a call from Jim Green about a 
Buff-breasted Sandpiper at North Branch this afternoon.

I arrived around 2:30 to find Jim and Ray watching the bird.  Also 
present was a Stilt Sandpiper that Ray had called about earlier.
I didn't stay long enough to count all the other Solitary Sands, Least 
Sands, Pectoral Sands, Killdeer etc.and I didn't want to steal anyones 
thunder but I did want to get the news out in case anyone else was 
interested in seeing the Buff-breasted Sandpiper.  It was a new county 
bird for me (I think that counts as #243 for Allegany).
