Sunset at Elsie Roemer
I couldn’t resist a quick stop by Elsie Roemer on my way home from work… arrived right at golden hour! The lighting was so different and dramatic than yesterday, and there soooo many peeps!
Something I’ve been wracking my brain on the last few days has been the difference in identifying sandpipers, sanderlings, dunlin, plovers, etc… they all look so similar especially with their different plumages. I spoke to someone there with a big camera who looked like he knew what he was doing and he assured me that the tiniest peeps are western sandpipers! The rest is just really zooming in to check out the beak, legs, color… once I get a clearer grasp I will make an informational graphic, so stay tuned.
Today’s photos!
What a magical evening! Today’s bird list at Elsie Roemer Bird Sanctuary:
