Long-billed Dowitcher

The water in Delta Ponds is low enough that shorebirds have made an appearance. I have been told that this is a Long-billed Dowitcher. I was on the Delta Ponds Pedestrian Bridge and the birds were far below in the ponds. I did have the lens to draw them in. Hopefully, next time I will be able to spot them from a shorter distance and can see if different kinds were in the group.

Super capture of him, Vern. The overcast sky and still waters gave you a terrific reflection which you certainly took full advantage of! :)

Really excellent photo! This bird is a very rare guest in Sweden. I have seen it only once in my birding life!
I think I have a photo (documentary) of it in my gallery!
