I also went to Havre de Grace this morning about 11:00, probably later
than Les was there. John Wortman was already at Tydings Marina when
I arrived, and had a distant shorebird that he suspected was a Dunlin.
Something spooked the bird and it flew away from the mudflats, but
then luckily for us it returned and landed at a closer location on
the flats next to 3 Killdeer. Sure enough, a Dunlin.
Waterfowl was disappointingly low for this time in October -- many
Mallards, Canada Geese, and coots but nothing else.
'Tis all for now,
