Observation details
Small brown wading bird, speckled white on the back and gray on the neck and head. Decurved bill with orange and a black tip. An astounding find. Thanks to Bree Clausen for reporting on iNaturalist! Found on the Riverbend Trail, west of the North Island bridge, in the Salt Creek back channel that extends towards the wagon wheel shelter. Great exhibition of feeding behaviors; catching Chinese mystery snails, cracking them open and extracting the muscular foot.
