Sanderlings (Winter plumage)
Sanderlings breed on the High Arctic tundra and migrate south to the UK in the Autumn to become one of the common birds along UK beaches. They gather in loose flocks to probe the sand of wave-washed beaches for marine invertebrates, running back and forth iwith the waves. This image was taken at Shellness, Kent.
