Description
*Scrappy little birdsShort-billed Dowitcher
A medium to large shorebird with a long bill, the Short-billed Dowitcher is a common and conspicous migrant that uses a "sewing-machine" method of foraging across the mud flats. Its long bill is short only in comparison with the very similar Long-billed Dowitcher.
Photographed at Malibu Lagoon State Beach
