2024-08-20 - Lesser Yellow Legs - Or Yellow Shank, this was the first time I've spotted these, though it looks like they aren't all that uncommon around here. Spotted around Lake Conestogo Ontario Canada.

Thanks to a very rainy summer, some local MN cornfields have turned into mudflats which are now populated by a variety of wildly-out-of-place shorebirds.

Local killdeer are also getting in on the action.
