This bird seems to be looking at me thinking, 'Who you callin' lesser, buddy?,' but more likely he or she is just annoyed by my flash. These little shorebirds are always on or around mud flats when I see them, and they are very active, always feeding and zipping around in low-level flight.The greater yellowlegs of course is ten feet tall, and can cause detectable seismic readings whenever it lands. No...I'm making that up. They actually look almost exactly the same, except their bill is a little longer. But my way would be cooler.
