Hudsonian Whimbrel Numenius (p)h.hudsonicus Engelmoer & Roselaar (1998) recognize 
two subspecies of Nearctic Whimbrel Numenius (p)hudsonicus i.e. nominate hudsonicus
as well as rufiventris. Rufiventris, which breeds from W. Alaska east to the NW territories, 
has the typical brownish appearance as in the bird in the first picture.
