Observation details
First found by Ilya and Mel on May 20th. Saw 3 for sure, possibly a 4th. Medium sized shorebirds with long slightly upturned bills. Not much smaller than all the whimbrels they were loosely associating with. Two were darker cinnamon colored underneath, one was a lighter cinnamon underneath patched with white. The 4th was a godwit as well but was farther out and it was difficult to see clearly and then it disappeared. Saw the light colored tail with dark barring when two nearer me flew. Managed to get a blurry shot of the 3rd with wings lifted, revealing pale underwing with dark barring. Photos.
