Spotted Sandpiper With No Spots
This bird is easy to identify in the summer with the bold spots all over its belly and breast. Lots of people don't recognize it in the winter when the spots are gone and just white remains. Here you can only see a few tiny spots left, only in view because the bird is bending over. The funny bobbing gait of the bird is the same so that is a better field mark.
