Semipalmated sandpiper .: CW69-4/84-1991E-PDF

"The Semipalmated Sandpiper Calidris pusilla, only about 30 g in weight and 14 cm long, is one of Canada's smallest shorebirds. Its name comes from the partial webs between its toes. Males and females are identical in plumage- rather plain brown or grey-although females are slightly larger. The species can be difficult to distinguish from other small sandpipers"--p. [2].
