Description
This is a Semipalmated Plover. These bird breed up in northern Canada and are a common migrant in Canada and United States.
This photograph was taken at Dekorte Park which is located in New Jersey by New York City. Dekorte Park has a series of trails that you can walk out on and observe the birds on the water. I walked out and sat down at the edge of the trail and waited for a group of Sandpipers to work their way over to where I was. This picture was taken right when they were next to me. This Plover had just landed right in front of me, and was walking around and interacting with other Plovers in the same area. As he was walking around, I was able to snap this photo.
