In the lee


It was breezy this afternoonthe wind was out of the east, blowing at about 12-15 mph (10-13 knots).  We went for a short walk at Doran Beach and noticed Snowy Plovers (Charadrius nivosus) sheltering in the lee of various objects.  My favorite was this dried-up kelp holdfast.  It was just the right height for the plover to hide behind.
