"Bump," Alex Wilke warned, as the skiff nudged into the marsh grass and abruptly stopped.With binoculars, she scanned the low dune line along the Eastern Shore's Metompkin Island. "There's an oystercatcher chick right there," she said, pointing to a long-legged bird skulking along the edge of the grass. "There's another chick that I think we will go for later." She looked some more. "Actually, we might go for them now." Not big enough to fly, not small enough to die, the American oystercatcher chicks were the perfect size for banding, although they stood about 12 inches tall and could run like the dickens.
