Sandpiper
This bird closely resembles the preceding, from which, in summer plumage, it differs in having the upper parts conspicuously margined with rufous and the breast more heavily streaked. In fall and winter plumage the differences in coloration are not so apparent, but the birds are to be distinguished at any season by the size of the bill, which in the western species always averages longer. W., 3.80; Tar., 80; B., 85-1-20.
