Down on the rocks

 

American Pipits (Anthus rubescens) are often seen on sandy beaches in Bodega Bay, but sometimes we encounter them along the rocky outer coast.  Here's one on lichen-covered rocks just above the intertidal zone on 12 January 2019.

    Thanks, Miles! It was fun to catch the pipit with the lichens. Perhaps it reminds them of some areas on the tundra?
