| Shorebirds
Shorebirds are the most difficult of Wisconsin birds when it comes to separating late spring departures from early fall arrivals. Early fall arrivals, many of which appear in mid to late June, might best be termed summer visitants. These summer visitants are adults in alternate plumage and can be any of the following failed nesters, unmated birds, males that have bred and departed and some which may have never reached the breeding grounds. These summer visitants arrive and then often remain in place until joined by regular fall migrants later in the season. While summering, these individuals might molt from alternate to basic plumage. For more details, see "Early Migrants Reconsidered, Eric Salzman, Birding, Vol. 28, pp. 277-279. Because it is perhaps impossible to separate the blend of summer visitants from the arrival of regular fall migrants, summer visitants for this report are usually lumped with early fall arrivals.
