    Originally the plan had been to have a big gathering of cousins for a picnic at this river beach (called The Hot Spot) on the east-facing side of The Sea Ranch.

    This one is has acquired breeding plumage showing the bold spots on its underparts. Males and females are identical in appearance, but this species is particularly interesting for sex-role reversal. Females are polyandrous, mating with up to four different males.

    Not an uncommon sandpiper, but one that's uncommon for me to see. They tend to congregate more along the coasts, where I don't often go birding - but occasionally visit the wetlands too.
