Limosé haemastica
Jun, 28. Barrow Alaska - A bird at this species was observed
in micromat marsh. It was found in the morning
by Poul. We all (4) went to collect the bird in the
afternoon. It was associating with a flock of
Golden Plovers but could be approached rather closely (Dagd).
The bird was reddish underneath, when it flew the
dark wing-linings were evident. The white bar at the
black tail was also evident. The bird also possessed
a conspicuous white wing stripe. The bill was
reddish towards the base. The bird did not appear
to be much larger than a Dowitcher.
