It
was a perfect evening for beach birding. The setting sun provided beautiful
light for viewing the many Sanderlings, Semi-palmated Sandpipers and Plovers, a
lone Piping Plover and a small group of Red Knots. Lesser Black-backed Gulls
are present in various plumages and we had a surprising number of Western Sandpipers
as well.
