October at the beach

  

While working on a project in the Bodega Dunes yesterday (15 October 2021), I heard some plovers calling and then out of the corner of my eye I noticed a plover that looked like a good candidate for a golden-plover.  So I took a closer look and had distant but nice views of a Pacific Golden-Plover (Pluvialis fulva) luckily I had a large lens on my camera at the time.

 

 View of the golden coloration on the back and the long legs:

 
 
And a broader view, with lots of Bull Kelp and mole crab molts washed ashore:
 
 
A nice fall scene!
