What is it??

Attachment 140162

Hello, I think this is a 'lesser-yellow-legs'? Can someone confirm?

Thanks...Terry Johnson:S3:

You're very close Terry. It is a Yellowlegs, but judging form the length of the bill (and that it is slightly upturned starting at about half its length) it would be a Greater Yellowlegs.

Surely a Greater. What month? It looks like a breeding plumage adult? Try to point your shadow at the birds!

It was taken in early April, 2014. When available, I point my shadow at the bird...Thanks for the help...Terry

Thanks Terry. Surely an adult in breeding plumage. When it is sunny, your shadow is always available :).
