The Coast got its birds crossed last week.
A story profiling the willet, a hardy and prevalant Outer Banks
shore bird, was accurate. But photo captions mixed up identification
of the willet and its smaller relatvie, the sandpiper. The birds
pictured on last week's cover are, in fact, sandpipers, the experts
tell us. The larger - not smaller - birds pictured inside are
willets. In the photo at left, the larger birds are willets and the
smaller are sandpipers.
