The Willet is one of the larger shorebirds, common in the marshes around San
Francisco Bay during the winter, where it is a drab gray bird except for its
striking wing pattern.

In the summer some Willets migrate inland to the marshes of the Sierra
Valley, along California highway 89 between Truckee and Quincy in the Sierra
Nevada:

I'm not fond of the bird's perch but otherwise I like this picture.

Technical stuff: R8/DMR, 560mm f/6.8, shoulder stock & monopod.  All
comments welcome.
