[Maine-birds] Cherryfield Semi Sandpipers

This evening there are, conservatively, 400-500 of these birds on rocks in the Narraguagus River in Cherryfield, just downstream from the upper bridge (by the Mathews Store). Concentrated on just a few rocks, they look very striking. About 99% juveniles, with just a few adults in breeding plumage. Most of them were sleeping. While I was watching a single Semi Plover flew in--did my best to turn it into a Common Ringed Plover, but no luck :-)
