Bird was present still this evening when I visited with Scott Brooks and his son Zef. Along with the sanderling, and three turnstones.

The Large Sand Dotterel was back at the Ashley Estuary this afternoon, first reported this season by Bev Alexander a couple of days ago.

Bird there today. Smashing down crabs

Has this bird been seen in the last month? We are passing tomorrow afternoon and wonder if a stop would be worthwhile. Thanks
