Hello,
Nothing extravagant to post here but I stopped by Paper Mill Flats in Baltimore this afternoon and scoped the shorebirds, which seemed to be mostly Least Sandpiper by density, followed pretty closely by Semipalmated Sandpipers. There were also 4 Lesser and 1 Greater Yellowlegs, a Spotted Sandpiper and 4 Killdeer. What was interesting was a SESA with an obviously long bill. The bill was long enough that the bird stood out as it moved about the flats. I uploaded a photo if anyone is interested:

Take care,
