This small Asian plover was discovered near Stinson Beach in Marin County on January 29, 2001 by Steve Howell and Sue Abbott. I finally got down there myself and saw the bird on 2/5/01. This is a first sighting ever of this species in the Western Hemisphere. Check out the description and photos on Joe Morlan's page.
