Info Post
This is the younger chick in the Long-billed Curlew family I have been following in northern Otero County,CO. This video clip provides some very good views as the chick is only about 125 feet away. It's quite short bill is clearly seen and the light is good so the pinkish underparts are evident. The chick mostly looks around but then does a little stretching which provides some interesting views. The adult male, though out of view, is only about 100 feet away. There is a prairie dog town in the background and at least one prairie dog can be seen in the clip. Also some heat waves are visible in the background. More Long-billed Curlew family clips to follow.
