Thanks Jamie. I saw 2 pairs feeding at Green Cay and this one was up close to the boardwalk.

Thanks Ashley. They are odd looking but beautiful birds.

For some reason his legs look extra long and his body looks small. Makes him look weird :) They are my favorite shorebird, and you captured him so nicely!
