A reddish least SP
I saw lots of (non-breeding) least sandpipers in the Caribbean in the past year but the pre-breeders are quite new to me. This one has all the characteristics of a least SP, but is it usually this reddish?
Thanks, ROnald |

Ya, it is a least. They look much better once colored up.

Going on size and apparent reddish beak I'd to say Caspian.
Royal should be noticeably smaller: http://www.carolinabirdclub.org/gall...ennis_9225.jpg
