We also saw the Eurasian Wigeon at the Ramp Rd. Pond on Saturday 2/10.
Also, had about half dozen Purple Sandpipers and Long-tailed Ducks from
Island 1. At Willis Wharf, we had over 150 Marbled Godwit with like numbers
of Willet.

On Sunday, 2/11, we had an American Bittern at Saxis Marsh.  Also good
numbers of Dunlin, Least Sandpiper and about a dozen Greater Yellowlegs and
3 Canvasbacks at the town dock area.  At Chincoteague Refuge, Northern
Shoveler was the common duck although we did have Ruddy Ducks, Black Ducks
also.  A few Red throated Loons wer visible from the beach area.

On Monday, 2/12, we had another American Bittern on the Chincoteague
Causeway along with 4 Brant from South Main Street.

Also on 2/12, we stopped in Vienna and found the Rufous Hummingbird is still
present.

A full list will come after I put it all together.
