An elegant long billed bird with a slightly curved bill.This bird is in it's breeding plumage. This bird was preening itself along with another bird. It looks so similar to the "Stilt"!!

This spotting has been disqualified from the 2017 wildlife competition as it was submitted in 2013 and therefore infringes the stated rules.
Jemma did you see my recent spottings of Mitchell Canyon. Spotted a Hermit Warbler and a Western Tanager.
Thank you so much ,Williefromwi. this is literally the first time I saw this bird.
Hi Paulm1, your lucky I never seen do that. Only move the bill back and forth just under the water.
