    Here is a fourth Shorebird in a harvested agricultural field. I probably should have said that all of these fields are within 1 km of the ocean. I think that's a key point.

    A lifer for me...

    Been chasing one of these down for the last three day trying just to see it if not get some pictures. Turns out that it worked out for both. Lot of fun to see and successfully identify after looking at lots of semipalmated and baird's sandpipers.

    Flocks of these sandpipers were foraging along the strand lines on the gravel/cobble beach at the west end of Bleaker Island. No member of my bird photographer group was a sandpiper expert, so I would appreciate your confirmation of my ID of this bird.

    Sanderling or White-rumped

    There is some dispute as to whether this is a Sanderling or White-rumped Sandpiper in transitional plumage. Either way a nice bird.
