Belated Friday Photo

Photo. A small strip of sandy shoreline at the bottom of the photo, shallow water in 80% of the rest of the photo, with a line of small brownish wading birds on the shore and a few in flight and about to land. There are a couple of white wading birds mixed in on the shore.

Friday Photo

Photo. Water with a half-oval spit of land coming out of the right side of the photo. A couple of dozen wading birds, mostly white and black American Avocets, are scattered around the edge of the sand. They're standing in the water. A couple of godwits are there too.

Friday Photo

Photograph. A shoreline, with some beach visible at the bottom of the photo. In the shallow water are many small white and black wading birds (nonbreeding American Avocets) and one tall white bird (snowy egret). The egret has its back to the photographer. Most of the avocets are in profile.

Friday Photo

Photo of birds in flight over water. About 15 birds are clustered to the right in silhouette, occupying about a quarter of the height of the photo. To the left, a wooden stick juts out of the water.
