Tringa melanoleuca
I found this wading shore bird in a fresh water pond near Caspers Recreational Park in Orange County California. I have not seen this particular bird at this particular pond in 1+ years.
Marshes and ponds in Canada and Alaska. Migrates on the Pacific coast (this photo in Orange County CA, about 12 miles inland from the coast).

Thank you Anne! I updated my spotting. I appreciate your help in this ID. I'm am not so great with bird ID's, but I love spotting them and photographing them.
