Willet in flight. Wiki says "The Willet, Tringa semipalmata (formerly Catoptrophorus semipalmatus: Pereira & Baker, 2005; Banks et al., 2006), is a large shorebird in the sandpiper family. It is a well-sized and stout scolopacid, the largest of the shanks." Photo by Mike Baird bairdphotos.com

11/5/07 photo request says: I am researching photos for the Audubon National Wildlife Refuge. I came across a photo of a willet on your Flickr site that could work for an interpretive sign that will be installed at the refuge. I attach the photo here for your reference. Is this photo available for use? If so, are there fees associated with the use? We would request one-time rights to display the photo for the life of the sign, and we would be happy to credit the photo to you. Thank you for your help, and please let me know if you require any additional information.
