Observation details
As we were standing there watching the Brown Pelican fly off down river we saw 21 Willet fly in and land next to the dam. Identified by Daniel Jacobson by the pill-will-willet calls and wind pattern as the birds were flying in to land. Lager shorebirds, grayish/brownish in color, long bill, about one and a quarter to one and a half feet tall. Birds had grayish/brownish wing, followed by a white band in the middle/back section, and black on the trailing edge.
