[Sandpipers] Wood Sandpiper 林鷸

Nice photo. However, this is a Wood Sandpiper and not a Green Sandpiper. Green Sandpiper has more or less uniform green upperparts. The white "speckling" on the bird in the photo is indicative of Wood Sandpiper.

Wood Sandpiper is the commonest wader at Long Valley. There are usually 2-3 Green Sandpipers around, as well as 2-3 Common Sandpipers.
