This morning around 8:20, I had a juv Baird's sandpiper among a roosting flock of snowy plovers, sanderlings, and semipalmated plovers a few hundred yards NW of the beach parking lot at Border Field (south of the horse trail and SW of the biggest dune). Most birds were flushed by a raptor, then again by Border Patrol vehicles, with the Baird's last seen/heard giving its distinctive trill call and flying low along the beach crest to the south, possibly settling with other peeps SW of the parking lot and north of the border.
