Well, apparently the rarities are showing up along with the very good
warbler fallout on the coast. Suzanne Sullivan found a photographed a
Common Ringed Plover at Sandy Point (south end of Plum Island, MA) May
20, and the bird continued through yesterday. Her photos were vetted by
Jeremiah Trimble and Marshall Iliff - def helps that it's in breeding
plumage. Here's the original message, but check any followup messages
on the MA Birding List:

Hmm, it's nice inland but not that nice :^) Very jealous of the coast
right now. Continuing Evening Grosbeak pair here on Horse Hill in
Roxbury, NH.
