It was overcast and windy, but had a chance to get back out to Boundary Bay before the rain started. At least there were a few shore birds around this afternoon. I did not spot anything out of the ordinary, just the usual suspects for this time of year.
I had some Least Sandpiper work there way toward me,
… and then go by right in front of me. Nice to get the tiny ones this close. But what I was slowly working my way towards were two Killdeer.
I find it can be hit and miss with these birds as to how close they will let you get.
Today they were cooperating and when the two Killdeer got together,
… they started to vocalize and put on a bit of a display.
A pleasant change of pace to have some quality time with these plovers. The last bird mixed in with this group I photographed,
… was a Baird’s Sandpiper. Also around this afternoon were Pectoral Sandpipers, Western Sandpiper, Semipalmated Sandpiper, Semipalmated Plovers and Black-bellied Plovers.
