Dave Brenneman and I went to Blackwater NWR today (15 Apr) in hopes of finding the Ruff.  We stopped at the Visitor's Center which indicated that no one had seen the Ruff on 13 or 14 April, last seen on 12 April.  We went to the described area and "patrolled" it from 7:30 to 10:30, 1:00 to 1:30 and 5:30 to 6, no Ruff.
