Saw this bird during last week's birding walk with A Rocha. There were several Greaters and Lessers foraging near the footbridge over the Little Campbell River. I can't tell which one this bird is.  Greater or Lesser yellowlegs by Joel Schmidt, on Flickr |

I would hazard a guess that this is a lesser yellowlegs. The bill seems shorter (if this is an accurate side profile) and the primaries extend pretty far beyond the tail. I don't really see any upturn in the bill.
