From Patrick Comins: 10/10/13 - Waterford, Harkness Memorial State Park -- Clay-colored Sparrow. Also at least one White-crowned Sparrow. For Patrick's ruminations on the identification of the Clay-colored Sparrow see his message last night on CTBirds. From Hank Golet: 10/10/13 - Rocky Neck -- Golden Plover. I went to the marsh just before noon; the Plover came to the same roost spot for the 3rd day shortly after I arrived. I checked again near 5 pm and extra high tide had nearly covered the location. I scoped around with no luck.  From Renee Baade: 10/09/13 - Litchfield, White Memorial Foundation, Folley Point -- Northern Shoveler, looking like possible eclipse plumage.
