Greater Yellowlegs
Sometimes it is hard to tell a Greater from a Lesser Yelowlegs. Not so here. These are classic Greaters with the bill showing clearly a third again as long as the head. I found these three feeding avidly in the pools along the Kennebunk Bridle Path, where we always get a few stopping over during migration.
