Went to Crandon again. On the way over I was greeted by 3 Greater Black-backed Gulls. On the beach, the usual 2 gulls and an immature herring gull. Cormorant and pelican, aswell as a Royal Tern.
Walking down the beach, a huge flock of small shorebirds were spotted. Turnstones, sanderlings as usual. But with them were about 5 Dunlin, new ones for me. I watched for Gannet, btu no luck. A cute, tame least sandpiper sat almost inside the seaweed. There were also a small Spotted Sandpiper and a Black-bellied Plover. Yellow-rumps about, too. Two huge iguanas there too. No dowitchers present.
