[SBB] New Chicago Marsh Stilt Sandpipers



Hi SBBers,

09/01.  After the Stilt Sandpiper reported  by Mike Rogers 
disappeared, the ever increasing in size, group of birders moseyed a 
little farther out the spur track to the last large pond on the left 
side (Alviso side).  Various birders contributed their spotting 
skills.  We soon had a single STILT SANDPIPER in view (10:25 am). 
Later, as if by magic, a flock of 3 Stilt Sandpipers materialized and 
was enjoyed by all.  The flock would disperse from time to time and 
then reform later keeping things interesting. Finally, we had a 
single Stilt Sandpiper casually foraging only 35 feet away.  This 
went on for 20 minutes and I wished our photographers had been there. 
These birds were all juveniles and I can only say I saw 3 for sure.
