Short Billed Dowitcher Flying In The Sky Royalty-Free Stock Photo

Short billed Dowitcher flying in the sky, it is a plump, medium-sized shorebird with very long bill. At all ages, look for subtle structural differences: Long-billed averages more hunch-backed, slightly longer-billed, and slightly taller, especially noticeable when in a mixed flock. Breeding birds have solidly salmon-orange underparts and rather dark upperparts with narrow rufous edges and white tips.
