While doing my daily bucket-sit this morning, I saw a large shorebird flying 
south down Jug Bay.  Got it in the scope and cranked it to 60x.  I saw an 
extremely long beak, a white stripe the length of the wings, very black 
underwings (more extensive than Black-bellied Plover) and a distinct white 
rump.  I figure that adds up to a Hudsonian Godwit.  This was at 9:29 this 
morning, 2 Oct, 2010.  And yes, it was new for my bucket list.
