Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!
These are some birds and critters I have not shown, seen during our Washington Trip in May. We stayed overnight in Ocean Shores and walked on a few of the local beaches. We saw some shorebirds like the Semipalmated Plover, Dunlins, lots of gulls and a hummer and possibly other shorebirds mixed in.
I believe these are the Semipalmated Plovers
A flock of Dunlin, see their black bellies.
Is this a Crow or Raven? My field guide says Raven's have thick bills. Do you think this bird's bill is thick?
Semipalmated Plover.
American Pipit seen on the coast, walking along side the sandy road to the beach.
Rufous or Allen's Hummingbird. I am not an expert on any hummer except for my local Ruby-throated Hummingbird. This bird was seen flying around the nearby flowers and like to perch on this pine tree.
Sorry, for the picture quality, the bird was a distance away and it was a cloudy day.
Neighborhood deer, near the beach. I think this is a Black-tailed Deer.
There are way too many gull species for me to id, my guess a Western Gull.
I am not sure if this is a big flock of Dunlins or mixed group of shorebirds. What is upsetting is seeing the cars driving on the beach where these birds were resting.
I appreciate and thank everyone who links up their post and for all the wonderful comments! I hope you enjoy my post and photos too!
