With our local water levels being so low this summer, many areas of shoreline have become mudflats. I watched these two fellows today and would appreciate a definitive ID on them if possible....I'm often off base but I was thinking lesser yellowlegs and least sandpiper?
Yay or nay?

I believe your ID is correct. A Lesser Yellowlegs and a Least Sandpiper. Both very nice shots!

Hey Jeff...
Yeah, near "Slate Falls Airways" if that helps...this particular spot is just around the corner from my place.
