Got bird # 149 at the Dacha recently (found by Mary)

Here’s a comparison of Semipalmated with a Least. So I think we can see actual black legs here on this sandpiper. It’s a short-winged bird; wings are just atop tail. Bill is short and pretty straight. Overall coloration is fairly pale, not brown. Baird’s and Least are brown-hued birds. Both also have a chest coloration…
Reddish Egrets don’t always dance around crazily. Note bi-colored bill. Corpus 2/24/25.
Egret/Heron Quiz answers. How’d you do?
Favorite Photos Here are a few I liked. I was pleased to find a Little Gull to get my gull-fix in !! Little Gull Friends !! I really enjoy the 2 groups of birders that Eric and I bird with on this annual trip!! Shorebirds Warblers and woodland passerines are only part of the fun…
A pair of Dacha Species #144 were floating in the river when I got home today, but then they took flight pretty quickly when they saw me ….. any guesses as to their identity?? View in group
Been hearing many of these on the Oregon Coast. Do you know the ID? (not the robin). Been extremely hard to see (much less photo) any of them. Too many trees!!!
