Observation details

Primary observation occurred as bird was resting, however a couple of times it brought its bill out of its tucked position. Although with some reservation, ID of Red Knot arrived at based on fine scaly pattern on back, plump body, sturdy bill thickest at base, short,dingy olive legs, and its association with plovers.
