Steppin' out

 
Near the end of a walk at Point Reyes today (26 November 2021) we encountered a large flock of Long-billed Curlews (Numenius americanus) feeding along the shoreline.  The afternoon light really brought out the colors in their feathers.
 
 
 
There were upwards of 50 birds in this flock by the time we left them.  Here's a small part of the group:
 
 
Such beautiful birds in such beautiful light!
