I was at Brown Station Road pond this morning.  While there I ran into Jim Moore, who had earlier seen a Stilt Sandpiper still with some breeding plumage.  Unfortunately I was unable to relocate it.  Other shorebirds I saw were Least and Solitary Sandpipers, Lesser Yellowlegs, and Killdeer.  There were dozens of Black Vultures, most of them on the muddy shore, some Mallards and Canada Geese, and a Belted Kingfisher.  Nothing I heard sounded like a Dickcissel.
