Black-bellied Plover on lawn, Whidbey Island.
All thee Pacific coastal cormorants on the dock next to Keystone Ferry Terminal, Whidbey Island. The lone Brandt’s Cormorant is third from the right. That species has become hard to find in lower 48 because of El Nino and the lack of upwelling and thus fish along the coast. On a recent visit to San Francisco I saw ZERO Brandt’s though they traditionally cover the sides of Seal Rocks.
Three Harlequins, male on the right. Off the beach at Whidbey Island, WA.
