Agree with GRHE.

Over 100,000 on 3 different warbler species? I can't imagine trying to process this in the field.

Today at a cemetery in Chicago. Was flying back and forth to a perch about 2 feet off the ground. Was flying into a thick tangle to grab prey. All the same bird. Acadian? DSC08303r by Mark Ross, on Flickr DSC08297r by Mark Ross, on Flickr DSC08290r by Mark Ross, on Flickr Thanks

Location?

In the 3rd photo the middle bird shows dark coloration on the leading edge of the folded wing. Gotta be Sanderling.

Looks like a perfect Vesper. Eye ring, face pattern, leg color all look right.

Today in Chicago. Both the same bird. DSC08157r by Mark Ross, on Flickr DSC08152r by Mark Ross, on Flickr

An unexpected surprise at the beach this morning: BBSA! DSC07959r - Buff-breasted Sandpiper by Mark Ross, on Flickr

This is from 8/5 at Lory state park on the trail up to Arthur's Rock. In the clip you can clearly hear the bird. You can also hear me breathing as I am not use to mountain hiking. The bird was repeatedly making this same vocalization quite loudly for at least 5 minutes continuously. Thanks for any suggestion.

From 8/24 in a swampy area near the Lake Michigan beach. The were foraging together. 1)DSC07806r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 2)DSC07804r by Mark Ross, on Flickr Thanks

SESA left and LESA right?

Bump

Was a little overwhelmed at Burnham Prarie on the south side today. I usually see just a few species at a time and I had a whole bunch here. 1) Sanderling DSC07688r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 2) Barid's DSC07666r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 3) Blue-winged Teal DSC07656r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 4) Sanderling, LEYE, Solitary Sandpiper DSC07569r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 5) LEYE, SOSA (Killdeer also) DSC07562r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 6) LEYE DSC07535r by Mark Ross, on Flickr 7) GRYE, SOSA DSC07463r by Mark Ross, on Flickr Thanks. Sorry for so many. I thought about breaking it up but decided 7 might be the upper limit.

Bump

Looks like a Summer Tanager with the splotchy red on the chest.
