Tweets,

Those of you who, like me, check Tweeters more often than you check ebird may want to know the Stilt Sandpiper was seen by lots of people today (not me, because I didn't know the news) at the same spot north of the 200th Street bridge in the Kent Valley where I missed it yesterday.

[Reminds me of this poem.

"Antigonish [I met a man who wasn't there]

"Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

When I came home last night at three
The man was waiting there for me
But when I looked around the hall
I couldn't see him there at all!
Go away, go away, don't you come back any more!
Go away, go away, and please don't slam the door... (slam!)

Last night I saw upon the stair
A little man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
Oh, how I wish he'd go away..."
