Snowy Plover

Snowy Plover on Limantour Beach at Point Reyes National Seashore.  There are only about 2100 of these birds along the Pacific coast between Washington and Baja California. You can learn more about this threatened species here: http://www.nps.gov/pore/naturescience/birds_snowyplover.htm.
You can see more images from my bird gallery here.
