These birds appear on our AtlanUc coast and in the Inierior early In August, usually In company with Semipalmated and Least Sandpipers. With these, they run along the waters edge, being easily distinguished because of their larger sise. They can be separated from the next species,, which also is found with them, only by a close examination to see the white tall coverts.

A., breeding from Labrador and Hudson Bay northwrrd; migrates through the U. 8. east of the Rockies, to Southern South Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Reed, Chester A.
