Sanderlings

I do enjoy the name of these birds, not only is it descriptive it's quite poetic. Of all the sandpipers these birds probably are the most frequently seen running on the sand, following the waves out as they recede and then back in as they move onshore. 
I think these were taken on  different days but only a couple of days apart in early September at roughly the same location. Back when shorebird numbers were still fairly numerous.
