2206_2430 Willet

This Willet circled and scolded me as I slowly walked the shoreline of Lonetree Lake. I always watch where I step, but this time I was extra careful, as quite likely there was a nest nearby, probably hidden in the grass.

 

Willets look much prettier in flight, as their striking wing pattern is hidden when they are at rest.
