A western sandpiper combs the shoreline for food. A brown leaf offers scale of this small shorebird. Slightly webbed black feet step on igneous rocks with seawater in the background.

A wide angle photo of False Creek, Vancouver BC. Boats and the Expo 86 ball skinned with corrupt FIFA flair. Almost invisible and highly camouflaged, western sandpipers walk the shoreline.

Two western sandpipers walking along the shoreline together. Small igneous rocks at their feet.
