A bird resting on one leg, faces right, with the sun at it's back. It has a brown head & back, the back is speckled with white. It has a bright white eye ring, a black tipped longish beak and a bright white breast that is just barely visible. It is standing on mud with bits of grass.

#Birds #Sandpiper Alan H ‪@alan678.bsky.social‬ says the #BirdOfTheDay theme alt is #oneleg any bird standing on one leg. Here is a Solitary Sandpiper having a rest in the sunshine on warm day in July.

A Spotted Sandpiper walks along next to reflective water.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay prompt is #speckled, and this #SpottedSandpiper is certainly that, as is its upside-down alternate-reality self.

Sandpiper Reflecting on Life. #bird #birds #sandpiper #photography

A bird on a sunny day, standing at water's edge, facing right. It has a black bill, and it's head & back have a bold pattern of black with rust and white feathers. On the right, small stones resting on the mud. The left is shallow clear water with more mud and small stones on the bottom.

#Birds #Sandpiper Alan H ‪@alan678.bsky.social‬ says
today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #LandMeetsWater any bird on a shoreline or riverbank, water and shoreline must be in capture. The tiny Least Sandpiper makes a brief (blink & you'll miss it) stop in our area on it's seasonal migration in late Aug.

A Solitary Sandpiper walks through cloudy water near a riverbank. Its shadow and its reflection are both visible.

Todays #BirdOfTheDay prompt is #LandMeetsWater. This #SolitarySandpiper was in downright weird lighting conditions, and therefore, its shadow and its reflection were both visible. Well done, bird.

Hmmn. #SteppingOut is today’s #BirdOfTheDay #theme. Here’s what I have to offer - a #Semipalmated #Sandpiper, caught on the colourful green shore of Frank #Lake in southern #Alberta 🇨🇦. Shot last August. Looking forward to visiting again soon. 🙂

I've decided to try more detail in the fauna aspect of my pieces. Little sandpipers out on the beach. #paperartist #ocean #beach #seascape #seabirds #sandpiper

A brown, spotted bird stands on a grey rock, on one foot, facing right with it's back to the sun. It has a mottled brown back, white breast feathers with brown spots, and orange black tipped beak and a narrow white eye ring. In the blurred background are bits of purple wildflowers and green foliage.

#Birds #Sandpiper Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has said today's #BirdOfTheDay Alt theme is #OneLeg, any bird on one leg. Early July a Spotted Sandpiper stopped to soak up some sun.

#Birds #Sandpiper Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social
theme for #BirdOfTheDay is #WaterBirds, any bird that lives in or get's it food from water. Spotted Sandpipers are fairly common sight, 'bobbing' along water's edge.

announce today's #BirdOfTheDay theme and it's #Serenity serene bird captures. I've chosen a little Spotted Sandpiper which had stopped 'bobbing' and, paused for a moment's reflection.

I’m sorry little sandpiper
The sand is all taken
We needed to make concrete
For the things we’re building
We had to tame the beach, but
Don’t worry, you still blend in
Enough for the traffic to ignore
The small wild thing you are.
