I posted three images of the Ruff on my blog at TimBoyerPhotography.com Here's a link: http://www.timboyerphotography.com/blog/

The bird was found south of the casino, and was fairly tolerant of most vehicles and beach walkers. It was feeding and preened before it was disturbed and moved south. I relocated it half an hour later north of the casino and was joined by other birders, Ken and Fanter Lane and then by Bruce LaBar. After extended views it flew north and I didn't relocate it.
