[EBB Sightings] One-Legged Willet by the Hayward Bay Trail

Robb and I were out cycling along the Bay Trail today. It was a nice day for birds, but we didn't see anything particularly notable.

Except a healthy, spry, plump one-legged Willet, who was feeding in the channel near the radio tower field.  Something about this bird struck me as incredibly poignant.

Details and photos at my blog:

Happy Holidays to all the East Bay Birders.  May your lives be filled with plenty, and may you not miss the things you lack.
