Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #StandingInWater, any bird standing in water. Like this Greater Yellowlegs (Tringa melanoleuca), seen at #PointPinole in #Richmond, #NorthernCalifornia, identified by its long bright yellow legs and long bill.

A large wading bird, a Greater Yellow legs is standing in the water with it's wings up showing a beautiful feather patter on it's underwings. It was using it's wings to help get around in the mud since waters were low and the mud was a bit sticky.
