Hi Joe-
Those are Lesser Yellowlegs. Note that the length of the bill is about the same 
as the length of the head. Greater Yellowlegs has a bill that is about 1.5 
times greater than the length of the head.

Can someone help ID these birds? They were feeding in a flooded pasture in
the Buena Vista Grasslands this afternoon. I will take a guess and say
greater yellowlegs, but that is only a guess.
