CommentTaken at 5:37 pm while walking back along the beach to the access point after a successful photographic afternoon. The capture of three species in breeding plumage was a highlight that afternoon as the following week they were all gone. This image however is the best I could get of the Red Knot. They always seemed to be behind the Great Knots.
