Flickriver

            The Whimbrel above is a member of the Curlew family which includes 9 species.  Unfortunately, two of these are likely extinct.  I consider it a special treat when we get to see one.  On our recent Texas trip, we also got to see the Long-billed Curlew.  (Double Treat).   During winter and migration, the Whimbrel may be seen along coastal areas.  They nest on mossy tundra in Canada and Alaska.
