Pictured here are Long-billed Dowitchers on Vancouver Island, photographed by Dave Kemp. Dowitchers are a good example of how tricky it can be identifying different species. The male Long-billed Dowitcher's beak is the same length as the male and female Short-billed Dowitchers, but shorter than the female Long-billed Dowitchers. How important can this be? I think they should be enjoyed for how they look.
