Observation details
*Rare in Tompkins County, only my 10th time (though ~15th individual). Juvenile with Least Sandpipers on main pond. Not seen on first scan, dropped in while I was there? Foraged for a few minutes, flying several times, then put up when the other shorebirds flushed and flew off to the NNW at 8:39 giving grating flight calls. Bright, scaly back, buff face and breast, long wings, black bill and legs. Much larger and longer and than Leasts in direct comparison but a slim shorebird.
