Not being a racist, but damn, all sandpipers look the same.

>>2454054
am not :(

You're just not looking at the right features of the majestic Sandpiper!
The semipalmated has fabulous white edged feathers, the western has a regal and upright posture that one should expect of the old western kings and finally you have the baird's which perfectly depicts it's namesake the hero Baird who was known for his massive pectorals.
I think that would make you a speciest, not a racist.
>>2454051
>Baird gets his own sandpiper
>>2454067
That sounds retarded I'd rather be racist
>>2454051
Ummm sweetie please check your privilege you shitlord
Fucking faggots, all of you.
>>2454051
WESTERN - LONG ASS BILL, CURVED
SEMIPALM - SHORT, STUBBY BILL
BAIRDS - BIG AS FUCK, TAWNY BREAST, SCALLOPED BACK
learn yo shorebirbs
You could easily tell them apart. You're just not looking.
>>2454065
Thank you for this in-depth explanation

Yeah but how are you going to tell bill sized accurately when they're 300 yards away? To say one is slightly longer than the other is pointless when they're just specks out in some marsh.
Sea gulls are worse to identify since the juveniles of many species look alike and they take years to grow their fully mature plumage.

cute birb desu

Literally kill yourself

I have the worst time with ducks since mallards create all sorts of crazy looking hybrids. I will take pictures of every duck that isn't obvious and later try to ID them in more detail.

False positive, what you've found is a joke.
>>2454051
HOW CAN SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS EVEN COMPETE?
If the standard model sandpiper just works fine literally everywhere why change it?
Never change a running system.
>>2454051
Whats the difference between a nonbreeding adult and an adult nonbreeding?
>>2454970
They make more money selling 'new and improved' models

Look at Mr. Crazy Feet on the middle right.
>>2455157
I've actually seen more of those but thankfully as adults. It's ridiculous how all the babies are designed to look the same.
>>2454582
The good thing is there's not that many ducks so purebreds stand out. The only mallards I see are semi-domesticated ones with white on them and I just lump them in as any other mallard.

Only one race - sandpiper race. KYS bigot, reported to your employer.
>>2454051

>>2456954
Flycatchers are god's ultimate troll. Literally impossible to tell apart except for sound.
