Semipalmated Plover (Breeding Adult)

            I didn't see this bird in flocks at Homer but only several at a time. In fact, they tended to be flying around me individually, tweeting all the while. I captured this one on the Spit at Homer near Mud Bay.

I just missed the bird festival at Homer, but the birds were still there. A lot of them migrating through but some have reached their nesting areas like the Sandhill Cranes.

Taken 15 May 2018 at Homer, Alaska.
