Juvenile bird. This species is probably one of the most frequent North American waders in the Canary Islands, but it can be confused with the similar Common Sandpiper. In any case, in recent years there are increasing records of Spotted Sandpiper in the archipelago. The bird in the image was present in the same site for several months, being observed and photographed by some local ornithologists and birdwatchers. |
