Observation details
Greenish-yellow legs, longer than legs of nearby Spotted Sandpiper but much shorter than Greater Yellowlegs. Bird was at least an inch longer than Spotted Sandpiper in body length. Conspicuous eye ring. Bobs occasionally, but not constantly like Spotted. Pale wash across breast. Upperparts brownish dotted with white. When it was preening, I could see that the outer tail feathers were barred, but I could not see the bird's rump. Additional photos available, some with Least Sandpiper or Killdeer in the same photo for size comparison.
