Remsen, J.V. 1977 [illegible] Sandpiper subruficollis (gent) Range: 9-12? (10?) [illegible] or just north, nine south. A small [Eisen] bird in characteristic heavy spotted appearance. We were also unable to see any feeding. We never heard the bird give any call note whatsoever -- they are usually silent on the breeding grounds. The bird spent all its time on extremely overgrazed pastureland, concentrating along the ridges and crests of the hills. It ignored the nearby cattle pond. This is another sandpiper with the combination of clear buffy breast and bright yellow long toes -- except perhaps Ruff which is larger, longer-billed, and above distance white patches on sides of tail -- this bird's tail lacked any hint of white patches. The tail was seen clearly in flight several times -- dark central stripe and pale brown laterally. [illegible] Field parties by Jeff Langham and Ed Gosse (documents) seen today by myself and John Luther, James Walsworth, Linda [illegible] Wattie Paladino, Bud Fry, Alice Muncourt, Clarence Smith.
