That is such an interesting looking bird. I wouldn't want to be a rehabber trying to grab one with that bill. ... lol... -Michelle--
Great photos - and that is one bird that migrates out here to Australia, but I usually see it in very different habitat.

Wow- great pictures! What a beautiful bird.
....lovely photos of the Whimbrels. I would love to photograph them someday! Plum Island looks like it's the place to be for birds!
Awesome captures of the Whimbrel Chris! I love that profile shot with the leg up.
