This Greater Yellowlegs keeps hanging around the little ponds along the shore at Boat Meadow Beach at low tide. He scurries about while I click away. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
“A Greater Yellowlegs is a slender, long-necked and small-headed shorebird with bright yellow legs. The Greater Yellowlegs strides purposefully across mudflats and marshes with a distinctive high-stepping gait, occasionally breaking into a run to chase aquatic prey.”
Have you ever seen a Greater Yellowlegs?
Fun fact:
“Colloquial names for this species include telltale, tattler, and yelper, all of which refer to its strident alarm calls.”
