Lapland Longspur

There have been up to five Lapland Longspur being seen for several days along the Tsawwassen ferry causeway, so that was today’s destination.

… I located two Lapland Longspur.

They were busy feeding in the grass.

These two birds were more than cooperative.

So much so, I had to back up a few times. A birder and regular visitor from England arrived looking for the Lapland Longspur, spotted me and then the birds. This sighting was a life list addition for him. We had a nice chat while standing back watching them continue foraging and make their way around my camera and tripod.
