Wandering Tattler

Tringa incana

Field notes

The wandering tattler (Tringa incana) is a medium-sized shorebird, similar in appearance to the closely related gray-tailed tattler (T. brevipes). The tattlers are unique among the species of Tringa for having unpatterned, greyish wings and backs, and a scaly breast pattern extending more or less onto the belly in breeding plumage, in which both also have a rather prominent supercilium.
