Very Small Shore Birds - Possible Least Sandpiper - Photograph

This is 1 of 2 posts of photographs that I took at Southport Beach in Fairfield, CT today.

These birds were so small that I almost didn't see them running around in the shallow water. I think they might be a Least Sandpiper, but they looked smaller than a Black-capped Chickadee.

The first photo is my entry for the following:

I recently took these photographs at Mill Pond Park in New Canaan, CT.

I think the bird in the first photo is a Spotted Sandpiper. The white bird is a Great Egret.

Greater Yellowlegs - Photograph

This is 1 of 3 posts of photographs I took of a Greater Yellowlegs at the reservoir in Easton, CT this past week.

This is the first time I've photographed one of these types of birds, and the accompanying Lesser Yellowlegs that was with this one. I almost didn't see them, because they blended in with the background. Fortunately they weren't skittish, unlike some birds, so they didn't fly off due to my proximity to them, and I was able to get many photos of them.

The first photo is my entry for:

It was amazing how fast this bird dove its head, as you can see by the motion blur in these.

Mystical Flight - Pictures

© All Rights Reserved
This is 1 of 4 posts of photographs I took at Jennings Beach in Fairfield CT on January 12, 2013.

It was overcast and misty when I was here. These sandpipers took flight, and although the shot came out blurry, I thought it had a mystical quality to it, so I decided to post it. The second shot is of the same group running along the sand.
