[SBB] Alviso Pectoral Sandpiper



Scouting along the entrance road to the Alviso EEC late this morning after
the fog lifted, I was able to take a few hurried photos of a juvenile
PECTORAL SANDPIPER in the stream north of the road and just east of the
tracks, before it flew north into New Chicago Marsh. This colorful guy has
a strongly rufous cap and broad white supercilium, which sent me to the
books and raised my blood pressure a little while I was processing the
photos back here at my computer. But the breast pattern looks safely
pectoralish.
