Need input, see what you think..................wishful thinking in  
Memphis.
Earlier in the week, I found a Golden-Plover that shows many field  marks 
of being a very, very LOST PACIFIC. I know it sound pretty far  fetched but 
the bird is interesting to say the least. I've posted photos at the  
following web page and would like comments on the ID of the bird. Be sure to  
look 
at the last photo on the page as it was taken this afternoon. I  heard the 
bird give both an alarm call and a very distinct two note call but I  have 
poor hearing and don't trust my thoughts on those but it did not sound  
anything like what I'm use to hearing.

Be kind, after all I'm stuck here in the middle of the wide USA;o)
 
 
Good Birding  !!!
