Solitary Sandpiper, take 2
I enjoyed this bird so much, I've decided to post a second photo of him.
The Flycatcher
To describe my lifelong fascination with flight and with creatures that fly I like to echo the words of John James Audubon who in 1839 wrote of himself as "...one who never can cease to admire and to study with zeal and the most heartfelt reverence, the wonderful productions of an Almighty Creator."

This might be a Greater Yellowlegs?
No, this bird is only about 8 inches long, compared to 14 for the Yellowlegs, has much shorter legs, a much shorter bill, and different markings, such as lack of white line in front of and over the eye. No question about it being a Solitary.
