I was out of town yesterday so didn't get to look for this bird then. I went down to Coal Oil Point Beach this morning and spent almost two hours searching the beach and estuary area for the American golden Plover first seen and reported Wednesday. Unfortunately, I did not find it, and it may have moved on.
The Least Tern reported by Adrian and Pam did show up for a very brief time. It flew in and landed with the major Gull flock on the beach; then flew off up the beach and I did not see it again.
If anyone should refind this bird, please post or else reply to me. The last time I saw an American Golden Plover in breeding plumage was in Alaska.
