Tuesday Afternoon Bird Photo


This is a spotted sandpiper. Easy to see how it got the name. I took this photo last week at the James River, which flows through Richmond VA. Apparently this is a fairly common type of sandpiper, but this was my first sighting of one. It's always exciting to see a new bird for the first time!

All God's creatures ....

"Ooh it's cold, I'm not putting the other foot in there", or is it "come on in the water's lovely".
It's foot is held at a funny angle, was it OK Penny?
Another very appealing one for you 'book'.

Yes, his foot was fine. Just the camera angle, I guess. And pretty big feet, good for keeping balance on rocks!
