I found the 3 Buff-breasted Sandpipers Friday evening. Thanks to Susan
Mcwhirter for pointing me in the right direction. They were on sod fields at
Bark Camp Barrens near Manchester, TN. Off from the gravel road that runs along
the eastern side of the field.

Late yesterday afternoon I birded the sod farm by Bark Camp Barrens WMA in
Coffee County and was rewarded with an American Golden Plover and three
Buff-breasted Sandpipers. Over the years I've birded there, when I find
Buff-breasteds they are always in an area where bare ground meets sod, and
yesterday was no different.
