At Milford Point today, while monitoring the Piping Plovers and the American Oystercatchers, observed a decent sampling of shorebirds, including Semipalmated Plovers, Semipalmated Sandpipers, and Black-bellied Plover. Below, images (including a brief video of the White-rumped SP) of two rather out of season species, a Sanderling and a White-rumped Sandpiper (one of a tight-knit trio). The Sanderling has a swelling at the top of his right leg--probably the reason he's around here.
