Pectoral Sandpiper

(Calidris melanotos)

Description:

I took a break from the swarm of warblers and warbler lovers to visit the marsh, and I met this foraging sandpiper. This weekend provided the “perfect storm” for a warbler fallout on South Padre Island; a cold north wind, rain, and a ton of birds trying to head north.
