Yellowlegs

[Dave B Smith]

I'm thinking this is a Greater Yellowlegs, but have some doubt. Can anyone shed some light? Photo taken in Campeche, Mexico over the weekend.
Thanks,

Hi Dave,

I'd agree with Greater Y'legs - stout bill with a paler base, thick legs, and virtually as large as the Stilt. Lr Y'legs would be conspicuously smaller and daintier.

Michael,
Thanks. I'll leave this one as Greater then. I have only once been sure to see the Lesser. I found a flock with both Greater and Lesser together!
