Trio at twilight

While walking Salmon Creek Beach at the end of the day today (3 November 2018), Eric and I noticed three Pacific Golden-Plovers (Pluvialis fulva) feeding on the upper beach.  The light was fading and they were a bit distant, but here are a few shots for the record. 

Views of single birds:







Two together:



And all three:


A nice way to end the day!

P.S.  For more information about golden-plovers, you can review some earlier posts, e.g., "Going for gold" on 20 October 2012 and  "Golden-plover, Part 2" on 23 October 2016.
