Yes, this is a Marsh Sandpiper. The very thin bill is a good way to separate from similar species e.g. Greenshank Author: QWERTYALEX Time: 9/08/2013 21:58
Nice pic, like the reflection. Author: louislee Time: 12/08/2013 01:02
Thanks, the pin-like bill is distinctive.
This particular bird has lost one leg, but it still foraged well on the day I saw it.
