Greater Yellowlegs

(Tringa melanoleuca)

Description:

Notice the slightly larger size and the longer bills of the Greater Yellowlegs. Both Greater and Lesser Yellowlegs wandered in the marshes near the Convention Centre. For my final winter expedition from my Brownsville camp, I chose South Padre Island. The drive to the island crosses Bahia Grande, where I stopped to look for waders, gulls and shorebirds.
