Late this morning there was a BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER at the M Street Marsh in Auburn. The bird was pectoral-sized with a dark eye surrounded by buff & no facial markings. There was a small amount of spotting on the sides of the breast. The bird was on a dirt clod facing me for about 15 seconds until it took flight. I could not find the bird again. No photos.
The bird was in the field between M Street and the main pond, as opposed to the overflow of Mill Creek to the south. A probable beaver dam just south of 29th has backed up the water in this area, making access difficult. Scoping from M Street into the bare fields may be the best option, if the bird remains.
