Description
A CUTE QUARTET OF SANDPIPERS is a beach theme digital photograph by Carla Parris.
I love the beach, and these little sanderlings are one of my favorite sights. They amuse me as they scamper busily up and down the beach, usually appearing to be in a hurry.
These sweet little shore birds were photographed at St. George Island, a beautiful barrier island off the Gulf Coast of Florida, south of Eastpoint, near Carrabelle and Apalachicola, and about two hours from Tallahassee, where I live.
Sandpipers are gregarious, often travelling in small groups. This image features a cozy quartet making their way along the beach, right at the water's edge, where they spend time looking for food and delighting beachgoers. Their mirror image is reflected in the damp sand left from a receding wave.
The palette of this coastal scene is pale blue, light beige, and white.

So fun to watch as they scurry up and down the beach, dodging the waves as they go. Great capture, Carla. L/fv
