Observation details

Update- Originally posted this wonderful find by Sally Hill as a White rump Sandpiper. It had so many characteristics of a White -rumped. One that didn’t seem to fit, according to many experts and scientists, was the heavier longer bill. For much more explanation you can refer to other birders list. Still a great hybrid to find!
