Hey All,

Did a big bird day this morning and Ill have some more Identification questions coming. I think the larger of the shorebirds here is a greater yellow legs and the smaller are least sandpipers, but any help would be appreciated this is the year I learn my shorebirds.

 

[Butty]

Close. Lesser yellowlegs + least sandpipers.

 

[Microtus]

What Butty said. Lesser Yellowlegs because of the shorter neck and shorter bill than Greater.

 

[Butty]

What he said. Shorter, finer, straight, more delicate.
