Headed out to Boundary Bay late this afternoon to see what might be around. The tide was high and pretty much up to the dyke. With the usual foraging area covered in water, there was not much going on. For the Black-bellied Plovers that were around, it was a matter of finding a spot to roost.
The clumps of eelgrass are commonly used by shore birds for just this purpose.
There were some Least and Semipalmated Sandpipers also looking to find a spot.
Here there are half a dozen Black-bellied Plovers and a couple of Ring-billed Gulls sharing the same clump of eelgrass.
And just to keep things interesting this Whimbrel flew by.
