Dan Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Marsh in NW Ohio, along Lake Erie. Maybe not even a Yellowlegs? I have zero experience with shorebirds, and the books don't clarify things. I leave it in the groups hands for a wise decision. It may not be the same bird, there was a flock mulling around and I snapped a few of several birds.

redcoot Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Both are definitely yellowlegs, but the trouble comes when figuring out which type of yellowlegs... My best guess would be greater for both, but you should wait to hear what others have to say. Edited July 18, 2018 by redcoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psweet Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 The first one's at a tough angle. The second one has a rather delicate bill and rather long primaries, I'd lean Lesser for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
