I went down to check the Ohio River at the Riverside Marina in Dayton
(Campbell Co., KY) at about 4:30 PM this evening. While looking through a
flock of
200 Canada Geese at some 20 "Lesser"-sized individuals, a small sandpiper
flew in and landed on the bank with the classic bowed-wing flight of a Spotted
Sandpiper. It then obligingly landed on one of the docks right in front of me
and I got a much better look. It was clearly a Spotted Sandpiper (in
unspotted nonbreeding plumage, of course) bobbing away. I'll have to go back
down to
check tomorrow morning to see if I can get it for New Year's Day as well.
