Observation details

This bird stood out from the SESA as being larger and plumper in appearance. Bill was slightly longer and drooped. Reddish coloration on shoulders and some rufous to the cap made me hopeful for Western Sandpiper. Some small triangular spots on chest, but not sure if its within variation of a SESA. Update: Based on review with others, decided it's an odd-looking WRSA - changed from peep sp. to WRSA
