Short-billed Dowitcher
Fowler’s Beach, Prime Hook NWR, DE
July 2015

I had the fortune of observing a small flock of dowitchers very close at the paved pathway out to Fowler’s Beach. For close to 10 minutes I sat down on the pavement and they foraged closer and closer until they were less than 10 feet away. Eventually they spooked, but I was left with some very amazing photos.
