akandula Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Looks like a juvenile Semipalmated Sandpiper. Juveniles have a scaly-looking back with a white eyebrow and dark cap. Overall, note the fairly straight blunt bill, black legs, and short neck. Edited September 16, 2019 by akandula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akiley Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Agreed. A bright juv Semipalmated. Western would have a longer bill and more distinct rufous on the scapulars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
