Thought this would be of interest to the NY birding community, both as a potentially chase-worthy sighting as well as a reminder that hundreds of individual shorebirds (European Golden Plover and Black-tailed Godwit making up most of the numbers) from the other side of the pond spent the breeding season in Newfoundland. Fall migration has begun and I imagine this won't be the last European vagrant to show up in the northeast this fall!
