A large group of white and brown American Avocets circling the gray waters of a pond lined with brown grasses to deter a predator. There was a Northern Harrier flying near them. Behind the pond are houses in teal, red and white, with green hills in the background and hazy blue and white skies above.

A beach sunset is always nice with a friend 💕 a sanderling searches the waves in the dying light of the day.

White and light brown Sanderling at the water's edge of the Pacific Ocean in Santa Barbara, CA.

My "first" contribution for #ShorebirdSaturday is this cute little Sanderling. #birds

A Long-billed Curlew flying towards the left of the image. Aptly named, its bill is massive but thin and is downturned. The wings are down, showing off the golden-brown hues of its plumage. Its feet barely extend beyond the tail, are dark, and tucked under the body. The background is blurred, but a brown and green field, mostly green treeline, and light blue sky above are present.

Let's go with #ShorebirdSaturday ? Yeah, that'll work. Long-billed Curlew from California 🪶
