Description
It always amazes me some of the names given to birds and mammals. I guess in the case of this particular bird there was a lack of ideas for a name. According to Cornel, this is one of the least-studied shorebirds on the continent. It is "often referred to as a “marshpiper” for its habit of wading in deeper water than other sandpipers."
