Observation details
Photos. Bird flew in off the ocean overhead us. Noted medium-large shorebird with long wings and overall gray coloration. Bird landing in with mixed shorebirds and was quite clearly exhausted (holding wings down below its tail). Watched it feed for 30-40 min as wings slowly were raised back up to a normal position. Hung out in the middle of the large mudflat (low tide) near the mouth of the river (ocean side). Seen again around 2PM on our way back into town from Safety.
