I'm always on the lookout for shorebirds - and on a recent trip to Birch Bay State Park we came across a tiny flock of them
Greater Yellowlegs - running about in the edge of the surf
They have the most wonderfully patterned feathers
Some preened - some slept and some skittered about
Then I noticed two smaller shorebirds
American Snipe - what a treat to find two kinds of shorebirds at the same time.
I took dozens of photos
It was a grand day for shorebirds.
