Description:
A fine example of 10 complete and partial tracks of an undetermined
shorebird member of the Chadriiformes. This diverse order today
contains some 349 species in 18 families that radiated rapidly at
the end of the Cretaceous to fill various niches by adaptations
associated to their feeding techniques. The Green River Formation
deposits of Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah are best known for their
immaculately preserved fish, but other examples are known as well,
as this specimen attests.
