    Details

    Likely short-billed but couldn’t confirm. Two medium-sized shorebirds with regular steady flight circling west meadow fields. Stocky bodies, with short distance between wing and squared tail with legs barely extending past tail (relative to yellowleg shape in flight). Long bill held at a downward angle about ~2-2.5 times the length of the head. Light undersides with darker color towards throat/chest. No stripe visible over or underwing. Did not get a look at the birds’ backs, and missed getting a good look at the face. After circling above Ned’s ditch, they flew off towards the Oxbow, but could not relocate there.
