Observation details
First reported by Blunk around noon today. A large buffy-cinnamon shorebird with a very long, bicolored, upturned bill. Present when I arrived and still present at 6:40 when I left. It mostly slept, preened, stretched, and watched passing raptors but I didn’t see any attempts to feed, perhaps because there isn’t anything to eat here. After noticing a silver band on the right leg I spent over an hour and two complete circles around the bird (very slowly) trying to get photos of all angles. I’ll update the report if I can get any additional information from the photos.
