Waders - The Long-billed Dowitcher

First seen on Monday 23rd July 2012 at WWT Slimbridge

The Long-billed Dowitcher (the smallest bird in the photo) is a rare visitor from America. It has an even more rarer cousin called the Short-billed Dowitcher. It is similar to the Godwits pictured with it, but is smaller and has much shorter legs.
