This evening I found a female/1st-summer *WILSON'S PLOVER* on the flat at the south end of Sag Pond (aka Sagg Mains) in Bridgehampton, Suffolk Co. Fortunately, Hugh McGuinness and Brian Kane were nearby and joined me in time to see it. If you look for the plover tomorrow, I'd recommend scanning from the various vantage points in the phragmites rather than venturing out onto the flat itself. Undue disturbance is likely to push the plover (and other birds) to less accessible areas. Five *BLACK SKIMMERS* and 4 *WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPERS* were also present along with several hundred other shorebirds.
