Sunset Sanderling (Calidris alba)

These comical birds are the ones you see feeding in the sand, who quickly run away when a wave comes. I've always enjoyed watching their antics, with their turbo little legs zipping them out of the way of approaching surf. I thought this one looked nice illuminated by the warm rays of a balmy bayside sunset.
