Observation details
Probable Pectoral Sandpiper, which is improbable, however not impossible. Seen adjacent to WESAs on Pond D. Distinctly larger than the nearby WESA, but with beautiful golden markings on the back. Bill longer than that of Least. Did not get many front side views, but the others seem to have gotten a few photos. Flew off shortly after. Seen at about 6:50. Some photos show the bill, which seems longer than that of Least and also downcurved.
