Southbound


I haven't had a chance to post this picture yet, so here's a nice Semipalmated Sandpiper (Calidris pusilla) on the outer coast of Bodega Head.  Photographed 20 August 2016.

Semipalmated Sandpipers breed in Alaska and Canada and undergo long-distance migrations to winter in Central and South America.
