Hi all: I had a yellow-rumped warbler singing in East LaHave today.  At Oxn=
er's Beach there was a ruby-crowned kinglet calling.  I also had five great=
er yellow-legs and another shorebird=2C which I think was a short-billed do=
witcher=2C but does not conform to the actions of one.  The eye mark was no=
t as sharp as I would expect.  There was a long grey colored bill=2C longer=
 than that of a greater yellow-legs.  The legs were very short and yellowis=
h.  The bird was smaller than that of a greater yellowlegs and brownish ove=
rall in color.  There was striping on the breast.  I took some photos and s=
ent them off to Ian=2C but they are poor.  Hopefully Kevin Lantz was able t=
o get some better photos of the bird to confirm the id.   James R. HirtleBr=
