“What is the extinction of the condor to a child who has never seen a wren?” - Robert Pyle

Hello friends! Today I’m revisiting spring migration. Spring migration goes so fast and there are always little joys I don’t get to share before we are well into summer. I love little tiny sandpipers for many reasons, among them that they will usually hang out with me on the dock. I love to watch them run up and down on those tiny little legs, listen to them talk to each other, and look at the incredibly intricate detail in their feathers.

Here are some of my favorite shots and at the end there’s a video I finally got compiled! These were taken on May 4, 2023:

I hope you are all staying cool wherever you are!
