PHOTOS--Much as I wish I had taken the photos on this blog, many are actually just links to online photos for illustrative purposes. If you click on the photo, it should take you to the actual site where it can be found. If you see one of your photos here, and want me to remove it, send me an email and I'll take it right down.

I'm afraid to me it looks like a Eurasian Curlew. I don't see anything that recalls one of the small species. Alas!

Agreed it doesn't seem to offer a lot plumage wise, but what about the size? It looks pretty tiny? I've heard of runt curlews, but that seems beyond runtish?
Does look notably small in the photos, but that could be an artifact. The bill is oddly thick and heavy, way too stout for either of the small curlews. I think it's just an odd photo of arquatus.
