Pipers? Plovers?
There was a time when I would have known what these were, but they are cute and there were a bunch of them on the shore at Brace Cove. Anyone know what they are?

Thanks Wendy. Now that I have a name to look up, they do look like sanderlings.

Thanks Al. Does appear they are sanderlings. I almost didn’t see them because they blended in with the rocks, but they were darting around at the water’s edge, so their movement caught my eye.

Definitely not plovers. Too big. And, they will arrive later in the spring.
I agree with sanderlings,
