Spotted Sandpiper Back Again

At first I mistook the Solitary Sandpiper as a Spotted Sandpiper. Just not used to the sandpipers at our lake that often.

Today, as I was trying to get a good shot of the Mallard family with the 15 ducklings, a Spotted flew in right next to them!



Sweet vindication. Sweet bird for the lake for yet another year.

While the lake levels are low it is a good time to keep checking for unusual shorebirds in the middle of Orlando.
