There is no doubt how the Greater Yellowlegs got its name. It is certainly aptly named. This Greater Yellowlegs (yes, there is a Lesser Yellowlegs) showed up noisily on the shore near us as we were photographing Kodiak Brown Bears across the river. Whatever it was finding to eat seemed plentiful and almost every time it dipped its beak in the water, it came up with a morsel.
“Perfect!”
I love watching those guys! Great shot!
