Ashbridge's Bay this morning - trying to ID the bird on the top right, behind the Least. It looks big enough for a Baird's, and it seems like the wingtips extend past the tail (although hard to tell for sure because of the blurriness and the dark water). The colouration of the breast seems a bit drab, though. Unfortunately just got this one lousy, cropped shot. The full photo is below for scale (bird is in the top right corner).
Any thoughts? Thanks!
