A possible Pectoral Sandpiper flew in and landed on the spit at Passage House this evening before quickly running behind vegetation. It had quite a strong supercilium, giving a Snipe-like impression when it landed, and was the same size as a nearby Common Sandpiper. After a couple of minutes it flew off again down river, having a slightly irrugular flight with fairly long rakish wings, and no wing bars.
The Little Stint was still present along with five Common Sandpipers. A quick check at Flow Point in the dark showed eight Dunlin and two Common Sandpipers, but no Pec.
