From Twin Lakes (O'Shaughnessy Nature Preserve).

I believe this is a Lesser Yellowlegs, but it's more brown than those in my books (they
look more greyish). I thought it was a Solitary Sandpiper, but the legs are much more
yellow than green, there are no distinct white rings around the eyes, and it didn't move
with the Solitary Sandpiper neck extension that I normally see.

Help from those who know what they are doing?

There were three or four visible today after noon, along with our
now-apparently-regular-resident limping Marbled Godwit, a few dozen Killdeer, some
mud-hopping Mallards, two Green Heron, and one Great Blue Heron.



I was checking the trees for Warblers, but didn't see anything interesting.
