Early this morning two Western Willets were feeding in a saltmarsh pool at Lower LaHave, 
Lunenburg County. They were conspicuously large and long-legged, giving them a godwit-
like appearance; had pale gray plumage without any contrast between scapulars and 
coverts; featureless heads lacking a capped appearance; and long, mostly dark bills. 
Easterns are still here in some places - for example an adult and an immature at the Beach 
Meadows outlook, Queen's County (where they nest) later in the day.
