I was inspired by an encounter with another birder at Fernhill Wetlands
yesterday. So I spent about 30 minutes taking comparative photos of juvenile
Least and Western Sandpipers. During the editing process, I put some thought
into how I separate these birds in the field, especially from distance, when
seeing the leg color well isn't possible. Here's a link to the resulting post
to the BirdFellow Journal.
