Subject: Buff-breasted Sandpiper at Port Townsend


Tweeters,

Brad Waggoner called me this afternoon to say that his brother, Dan
Waggoner, had discovered a juvenile Buff-breasted Sandpiper in Port
Townsend. We re-located the bird about 3:30 pm and took some photos. It
was associating with a few Killdeer in the lagoon opposite the Port of Port
Townsend. Directions coming into Port Townsend on SR 20: proceed down the
hill until you pass the Safeway grocery store. Take a left just past
Safeway which leads to a parking area with restrooms. The bird was last
seen foraging along the shore on the larger of the two lagoons, often
allowing close approach. Feel free to call or write for more information or
more detailed directions.

Good birding,

George Gerdts
