Semipalmated Sandpiper
Barrow, Alaska
D3, 600, 1.4TC, ISO 800, F8, 1/2000
It was great to see this species on their breeding territory. They are so animated with their display and flight calls. They seem like a diffenert species to the ones I see in migration on the Upper Texas Coast. In this image you have the bird with it's tail cocked, wings up and calling on the fresh tundra that just thawed out.
