I guess on first glance it didn't appear undoubtedly long-winged to me in the way that BASAs often do. That being said, I concur that it's too long-winged for LESA. The legs still look yellowish to my eyes, but whatev. Mea Culpa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexHenry Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 The primaries barely project past the tertial tips just a tiny bit, the legs are yellow, and the bird is smaller than the nearby Western Sandpiper. It’s definitely absolutely 100% a Least Sandpiper, I agree with @DLecy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
