When it's cool and windy along the coast, go to Sarasota's Celery Fields to find a lot of sometime shore birds.
The adult Greater Yellowlegs averages about a foot long, has long yellow legs and a long, thin, dark bill which has a slight upward curve and is longer in length than the head. These birds breed way up north in Canada and Alaska, but like our human "snowbirds", come south for the winter.
