Observation details
While observing in the field I noticed this yellowlegs had a slightly upturned bill, which is characteristic of Greater Yellowlegs. The overall size though did not seem to be very large at first glance, so I wrote it off as a lesser yellowlegs until I could review my pictures. After reviewing the photos more, this indeed was a Greater Yellowlegs. Longer, upturned bill, heavy barring on the flanks, and thicker legs.
