On Thursday afternoon several of us were observing this Dunlin (see atached pic) at Minsmere reserve UK.
The bird appeared to be different to our normal Dunlin as it had a much longer, downcurved bill, darker upperparts and more mottled, messy breast, and it was slightly larger with a more hunched apperarance.
Any ideas as to race etc would be much appreciated.
