Delaware coast. is it a Willet or dunlin? definitely a kind of sandpiper. possibly had orangish legs but uncertain. Was solitary and bigger than the tiny pipers that run together in quick footed groups. Spotted right at dusk.

I deleted the feeder watch tag. sorry, was my mistake.

Definitely not a dunlin. If the legs are orange, then it is not a willet. Could be a solitary sandpiper. Please remove this from the "Feeder Wildlife- Northeast US" mission as this was obviously not spotted at a feeder. Thank you.
