I saw a lot of this bird along the shore while turtle-watching in Hawaii. I’m fairly certain he is a Least Sandpiper (Calidris minutilla), but not 100%.
Update: And I’ve been corrected already by the good folks at the Cornell Labs. It is a Pacific Golden-Plover (Pluvialis fulva)
Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, Exposure Time: 1/500, Aperture: f/8, ISO: 160, Focal Length: 560mm
If you enjoy my photographs please consider making a purchase. All of the proceeds from the sale will go directly to help support our friends volunteering at the Seed of Hope in South Africa which is a great organization really making a difference in the community. Every little bit makes a difference, even a small digital download for your desktop!
