THAT's what was missing on the coast of NC...all the little birds!! There were a few gulls and a couple skimmers (a tern of some sort - I'll get a shot of it up soon) but no little plovers or sanderlings or similar!! These are such cute little birds

Aww - maybe the beaches you went to have too much human traffic? I only see these guys in Monterey on the beach when there aren't too many people around. If there are too many, they fly away and go to another beach.

there weren't that many people where we were walking but further down vehicles were allowed on the beach so that may have been the cause...plus the birds have so much beach on the inward side of the banks to hide out... Seeing cars etc. on the beach was a different sight for us - not allowed into many places here on the west coast anymore...

I can't say I see cars on the beach in too many places on the East Coast either!

Such a wonderful, clear shot of a very cool species.
