Today, it’s a week ago Sunday afternoon, from the Gull Point Trail trailhead at Budny Beach as far as (but not including) outer Gull Point.
Rest of this post, lots and lots of Least Sandpiper on the bayside beach access by the inland/official trail “big bend:”
ID tip on Least Sandpiper: very small sandpiper with distinctive yellow-green legs. (The only really small sandpiper at this location with this colouration of legs.)
As always, a fascinating group of photos! The cranes certainly were hiding from everyone! Nice to see them!
Each sequence of photos really brings out the beauty of the different birds!
Thanks, Team Leader.
Didn’t even notice the cranes at the time. Problem with birding in hot/humid weather – not dawdling much to take in the details.
