Need help identifying a bird? Please post your question here and if possible include a photo. Also let us know where and when you saw the bird. Other things that help are listing any field marks that stood out, behavioral information like how it walked, hopped or flew. This Forum is just for North American birds.

Herd of shorebirds in flight.

Post by Hooded Robin »

South shore of Georgian Bay, Lake Huron this morning.

Does anyone see anything other than Dunlin, semi palm, Semi/least sand in the photos (overall and crops of same photo). Only one photo of overall shot in the preview but two added.

Thanks Kevin - Red Knot and Ruddy Turnstone, both uncommon locally, had been reported at this location the previous day.
