Success!
Another shorebird I was hoping to see. I was hoping that I'd be able to pick it out, and fortunately, it was easy to see the difference since the Pacific Golden-Plover (Pluvialis fulva) was surrounded by the Black-bellied Plovers.
If it's not easy for you to pick it out, the Pacific Golden-Plover is the one in the middle, the rightmost bird facing left. It's smaller, more delicate, and has a golden wash.
