RobinHood Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 (edited) Southern Ontario yesterday. Only got a glimpse before it was in the distance (I was preoccupied puzzling out what the very distant thing in the second photo was, eventually figured out the "white bill" was part of a branch). I assumed probably a Spotted Sandpiper but maybe not. Thanks. Edited August 13, 2022 by RobinHood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seanbirds Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 It looks pretty solid for a Least Sandpiper, but it could be a Semi or perhaps something else. I'd report it as Peep/Calidris sp. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
