Observation details
Medium sized shorebird bigger than adjacent Spotted Sandpiper. Black bill longer than head with very slight droop. Yellow legs. Feeding style - was acting most like an Avocet running forward and sweeping bill side to side while up to belly in pond. Head overall light gray contrasting with brown scaly feathers with dark centers on back. Gray brown crown, distinct white line above eye from bill to eye. Below bill and meeting with superciliary and below eye all light gray. Bit of darkish patch coming back from eye. Light gray on chest. White on belly thru undertail coverts. Took awhile but saw underwings while preening with white on coverts. Uppertail white and end of tail gray with no bands. Notes made on site looking thru scope.
