Whimbrel (Numenius phaeopus) in the coastal prairie, 31 March 2022
In the Bodega Bay area, Whimbrel are often observed in marine and estuarine habitats — sandy beaches, mudflats, rocky shores. But sometimes, especially when the ground is wet after rain, we'll see them feeding in the grassland.
I wonder if it reminds them of the tundra habitat that they'll spend time in during the breeding season?
