Great article, Bill. Thanks for sharing. The Whimbrels are beautiful birds.

Hi All, 

I was pleased to see two young Kildeer--small but fully fledged--at the TTU 
Credit Union.  (In the parking lot: they weren't actually in line).  

Meanwhile there's this fine article in the NY Times today with great 
graphics, about a sandbank off Edisto Island in South Carolina coast that is 
hugely important to shorebirds, especially whimbrels.
