Sorry that's not right. I think the picture is too difficult on second thought, I was just trying to make it really tricky but maybe it's too tricky. I don't know if I'd get it if the shoe were on the other foot. You would get the adult form in a second. If no one can get it I'll just post a picture of the adult.

this is probably a long shot, but is it an upland sandpiper?

You're kind of close, but still no. Should I just post the adult?

Edit: Also instead of just juvenile, I would go farther and say it's very very very young, almost a baby. I feel bad I posted this pic now :oops:
