According to Wikipedia, the green sandpiper is a wader with "dark greenish-brown back and wings, grayish head and breast and otherwise white underparts. The back is spotted white to varying extents, being maximal in the breeding adult, and less in winter and young birds. The legs and short bill are both dark green."

| When our guide named it I couldn't see the green and I can't see the green now. |
It is migratory. It breeds in subarctic Europe and winters in southern Europe, the Indian Subcontinents, Southeast Asia and tropical Africa. I saw it in Kaziranga NP in Assam, India in December 2024. It is found in freshwater and sometimes in sites with a lesser view than other waders are willing to use.
