Observation details
Found by Suzanne. Suzanne will add pics and her recording. Worked hard for recording. Photos reviewed and ID confirmed by MJI. Loosely associating with large Killdeer flock on back Tendercrop Farm fields. Instantly knew when I saw this bird it was not an AGPL. I excitedly told John he had to get out his phone fast to record because I know what a challenge these birds can be. I was able to creep up on it and get the info needed to confirm ID - Longer thicker bill than AGPL, very short wing projection, long tertials, flight shot showing feet extending beyond tail, long lanky bulky appearance. I felt badly but I had to force them to fly to get the call. Neat bird far from where it should be!
