I posted this picture before and got a couple of different opinions about the ID. I felt it was a Least Sandpiper, but I am totally unsure. I have a need to label it correctly and I am hoping someone can give me a more definitive ID.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I can't help with the ID, Garry, but it's a real nice shot.

Baird's Sandpiper (Calidris bairdii)

Do a Search on the net, and you will see Clones of your Bird all over. Keep in mind that this breed changes as it ages, but the photo you took is definitely a Juvenile Baird's Sandpiper, dead on match.

Oh BTW if you have an iPhone or iPad? There is an incredible program called iBird Pro and on sale now for half off.
