Greater Yellowlegs

This more a BIL ( Bird in landing ) than a BIF.

There is a small inlet in my area that attracts flocks of Yellowlegs. On the day this photo was taken there about 40 of them. - Also Black Skimmers, Black bellied Plovers, Sandpipers, Herons, Cormorants and a Red Tail. Only accessible via water (kayak).
So I have the area pretty much to myself. I have to say it is a blast having your own private nature preserve.

Common Mergansers taking off. Shot from a canoe in Algonquin park.... I sat with them for about 30 minutes until another canoe came along and scared them off....

Is that sunlight / beam that colors the wing?

Thanks! It's taken at sunset, gives it a warm look. Normally the "face" is white. The blue-and-yellow macaw has yellow colour under the wing.
