Shorebirds

An American Oystercatcher came in for a landing at Milford Point, Ct. on the Long Island Sound.

A Piping Plover chick, new to this world, wandered about on the sand at Milford Point but not too far from her mother – who kept close watch.

A Semi-palmated Plover became a “puddle bird” at Pelham Bay Park in New York.
