I stopped by Long Bridge (head of Chequ Bay) on my way home from work and had the Whimbrel. Here are some documentation photos: http://www.pbase.com/rbrady/image/124539802 http://www.pbase.com/rbrady/image/124539801 The Am. Golden-Plover was apparently replaced by a Black-bellied and also present were Pectoral Sandpiper, Short-billed Dowitcher, Semipalmated Plover, and Semipalmated Sandpiper, along with the Dunlin and Least Sandpipers.
