On Sunnyside Beach, a Baird's Sandpiper was studied this evening at close focus range with four Semipalmated Sandpipers. It was observed at the eastern end of a wide section of beach, just west of where the shoreline is artificially reinforced with small rocks. Interestingly, my only other Baird's in Spring was seen at the same time of year in similar weather conditions on the Leslie St. Spit.
