Hudsonian Curlew

Numenius hudsonicus Latham, J 1790

The Hudsonian whimbrel is a wader in the large family Scolopacidae. It is one of the most widespread of the curlews, breeding across much of subarctic North America. This species and the Eurasian whimbrel have recently been split, although some taxonomic authorities still consider them to be conspecific. Source: Wikipedia
