Mindy Smith Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 West Bloomfield (south-central) MI at Robert Long Park. Saw this shorebird, single and deep enough in water I couldn't see the legs. Was too far for a good photo. On the third photo, caught the tail (banded) at the far right of the frame as it flew. Am not familiar with sandpipers in MI. Thanks in advance.

Birding Boy Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Looks good for Solitary sandpiper. Similar yellowlegs don't have those big white eye rings and aren't as darkly marked on the chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
