Sanderling
Calidris alba

I'd guess this is the most common shorebird in N. America. I caught this one on the evening dog beach walk. For the record, 25# of puppy is NOT an aide to good shooting!

5D IV

Comments and suggestions always welcome.

Good light,

Super use of the habitat for story telling Craig. Could go a little brighter but that might be my monitor.

Agree- a tad dark, but a lovely pose, so typical .
