Red Knot (Calidris canutus ?) Islandsk Ryle ~ Playero Rojo ~ Kustsnäppa 2018-04-15 Playa el Tecolote (La Paz - bcs), Mexico
Basic plumage. The silvery look is typical for the species. But still I achieved to mis-judge this bird, until I started to work with the photos. I'm not saying what I originally thought it was, but I'm sure the rocky surface and the bird's at times upright stance, made me go wrong. Here with Surfbird and Black-bellied Plover. |
