Least Sandpiper (Calidris minutilla) 7 November 2004 at Hayward, ALA Photo © 2004 Joseph Morlan


This Least Sandpiper was foraging in the muck near the Long-billed Curlew at the Hayward Regional Shoreline this afternoon. It is the smallest North American Shorebird, making an interesting comparison with the much larger curlew.
