Observation details
Medium-sized sandpiper with straight, long, greyish bill that appeared darker at tip. The pale gray body and paler breast lacking in color made me think willet, not dowitcher. legs appeared grey. Wings had striking black and white pattern on back in flight. I observed this bird plucking around in the rockweed for 1-2 minutes at a distance of about 100’ in excellent lighting; then it flew away and I saw the patterning on the wings from above.
