Observation details
Similar in size to a Spotted Sandpiper but with a speckled back, no white notch on the shoulder, a bold white asymmetrical eye ring with spectacles but no eyebrow, pale greenish-yellow legs and a medium-length bill light gray at base to dark gray at tip of bill and lots of head bobbing as it foraged in the shallow channel among some mallards and a yellowlegs. Seen just past the gated entrance to Whelan Lake looking into the channel from the road here: N 33°14'39.36660" W 117°19'55.36590" (reservations required for access). [EM]
