Sandpiper Query
Managed to photograph this sandpiper yesterday, which I thought was just a green.
Having posted a photo on my local forum, a discussion has started as to whether or not It is a Solitary Sandpiper (Tringa solitaria). I'd appreciate It If someone to confirm this either way if possible. Regards. |

It has really short pp and what i can see tailbase looks clean white. So Green imo.
