Description
Red Knots are plump shore birds that belong to the family of sandpipers. In the summer, the adult birds exhibit a bright orange-brown underparts and intricate mixed colors of gold, brownish-yellow, reddish-brown, and black on their upperparts. But the colors of the juvenile red knots are very different. The juvenile has a pale brown-white color, a fine scaly pattern, a white eyebrow stripe, and dingy yellowish green legs. It took me quite some research to finally identify it as a juvenile red-knot.
