Editing Upland sandpiper (section)

==Description==
[[File:Bartramia longicauda.jpg|thumb|left|From [[Johann Friedrich Naumann|Naumann]]]]
An adult is roughly {{convert|12|in|cm|abbr=on|disp=flip}} long with a {{convert|26|in|cm|abbr=on|disp=flip}} wingspan. The average weight is {{convert|6|oz|g|abbr=on|disp=flip}}. This odd bird has a small dove-like head on a long neck. It is heavily marbled black and brown on the back and wings. The neck is streaked with dark brown which continues down to the breast and on to the flanks. The belly and undertail coverts are white, and the tail is quite long for a sandpiper. The upland sandpiper also has a white eye-ring and long yellow legs.
