[Maine-birds] Buffy still in Lubec 8/29

I saw a juvenile buff-breasted sandpiper at the South Lubec Sand Bar this morning, likely the same bird that Rob found there yesterday. I first spotted it way out on the flats feeding with SB dowitchers about 4 hours before high tide.  The bird was poking along the wrack line high up on the beach by the time I left two hours later. Overall shorebird numbers were quite low for this time of year. 

Many thanks to Rob for reporting this sweet bird!
