Media notes
Buff-breasted Sandpiper
Observation details
Buffy breast with short, straight black bill and yellow legs and black eye. It had a slight build. Almost as tall as a Killdeer, about the same size as a Pectoral SP. Overall color was tan with a little bit more darker scalloping on back. Not really two-toned (light on belly and dark on back) like many sandpipers. Wings were very longIt blended into the muddy background and was one of the most difficult birds to see I have ever seen. Head seemed small for the body.
