White-rumped Sandpiper at the Tatamy Exit Pond ~ August 28, 2025

After golfing, I stopped at the Tatamy Exit retention pond and found a White-rumped Sandpiper. I got some nice photos of it despite the harsh lighting. Note the long wingtips extending past the tail, the white eyebrow, black legs, and the limited streaking along the sides.

The distinctive white rump is almost always hidden by the wings unless the bird is in flight or preening like in these photos.

Also present were 6 Killdeer and one Least Sandpiper.
