Tringa semipalmata
The willet is a large sandpiper. This willet was foraging in the surf with other (smaller) sandpipers.
This is an eastern willet, living along the coast. This spotting was made on the FL gulf coast.
The willet is protected under the Migratory Birds Treaty Act in the USA. http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/Regula... http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/wille...
