Observation details
Found by Michael Stubblefield. The birds were on the edge of Caven beach right where the jetty meets the beach on a very cloudy early morning. Large shorebirds with long, upturned bi-colored bills. Two were in breeding plumages showing reddish bellies and dark colored backs. The other one was gray-brownish above and paler below. Initially thought the lighter colored was a marbled godwit. However, all 3 showed blackish wing linings and black tails with white rumps inflight. For inflight photos of these 3 birds, see Michael Stubblefield's checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S177260231
