RE: A Common Sight on Local Beaches, the Tiny Sanderling Migrates From the Arctic

in StemSocial2 years ago

It is undoubtedly a very beautiful species of bird. Apparently its survival is based on constantly migrating to different areas in search of food sources and better places to reproduce. It is a pity that, like many animals, their lives are harmed by human action, especially by the garbage that often contaminates the beaches and that on many occasions end up being ingested by the birds. Very nice photos and are complemented by excellent information @agmoore. A pleasure to read you again, greetings.

Greetings, @abneagro,

Thank you for the nice words. For me, your posts are a model for how to do a blog about nature. Of course, you know so much and I have to research everything :))

Those little birds are amazing. They have to constantly balance energy used against energy gained when they forage. Even when they take flight to avoid predators, they have to balance energy used against danger.

I'm glad you like the photos. Some are fuzzy, but still clear enough to see. Thanks again for stopping by. Have a most wonderful day.
