Identifying adult Dowitchers in worn plumage is full of pitfalls. Late yesterday evening I was able to get recordings of flight calls from apparently the same Dowitcher in the NW corner of Timnath Reservoir and the calls matched Long-billed Dowitcher.

This is a great opportunity to study a rare shorebird in Colorado. Swim beach is accessed from the neighborhood on the east side.I will post photos to CFO Facebook page later.
