            My recent trip to the beach reminded me of one of my favorite birds, called a sanderling. They’re in constant motion, running back and forth trying to capture the sand crabs and other invertebrates that they like to eat without getting washed out to sea by a wave.  They’re much cuter than the gulls, a lot less noisy, and they won’t steal your picnic lunch. What’s not to like?

            Happy Weekend!

The Food’s OK But The Location Is Fabulous!

             These tiny birds, called Sanderlings, are one of my favorite sights at the beach. Even their name sounds cute to me. They scurry back and forth, just avoiding being swept away by the waves as they constantly search the beach for their food, marine invertebrates. The Cornell Ornithology Lab describes them as in a “perpetual wave chase” which I think describes them well.
