Observation details
Surprise! I have never seen Willets in breeding plumage. Brownish large shorebird with stout straight beak seen thru spotting scope in low vegetation west of reed bed on northeast shore. Saw it bob its body. Saw a little white above eye. No eye-ring like Solitary Sandpiper, but was much bulkier than a Solitary anyway. Center of chest was clear whitish, with upper sides of chest brownish streaks visible. Photos and video taken.
