Richard Larsen Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 In Florida, in early February, I called pictures 1-4 'Dunlin', altho I still wonder if they could be Western Sandpipers. The first three pics are the same bird, I think the bill too long to be Western, and maybe back too gray. so, I went with Dunlin. Number 4 is a different bird, again I called it Dunlin. Number 5 I went back and forth Willet vs Red Knot, settled on Red Knot, but for all I know could be something different. In a different location, an area called Bayley Tract on Sanibel Island, I found the bird shown in 6 and 7. Long way away, pics may not be good enough. I ended up thinking maybe it was an Eastern Phoebe but wondering if others have better ideas. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiscalus quiscula Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 1-4 do look like Dunlin. 5 looks like a yellowlegs, possibly Lesser but hard to tell without the bill. 6 and 7 are phoebe for sure. Wait for more opinions for 1 to 5 though. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
