sbruenjes Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 I saw this bird earlier this week at the nature preserve in Chincoteague, VA. There were willet around and I thought this was one when I took the pic, but it doesn't seem to look like the other willets.. Is here anything else this could be? Any help would be appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan B Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Yeah, it's a Willet. One of the "Eastern" Willets that look quite different from the "Western" Willets. That may be why it looks different, though I'm not familiar with the migration timing at this location. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipperatl Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Yep, Eastern Willet with that gigantic bill. Put it in eBird as an Eastern and you’ll get a free lifer probably within next 5 years. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
