Pectoral Sandpiper Royalty-Free Stock Photo

The pectoral sandpiper is a small, migratory wader that breeds in North America and Asia, wintering in South America and Oceania. It eats small invertebrates. Its nest, a hole scraped in the ground and with a thick lining, is deep enough to protect its four eggs from the cool breezes of its breeding grounds. Found here during migration time in Ft DeSoto, Floirda on North Beach.
