The next thing we saw at the bird viewing area were Sandpipers. This one was right by the entrance. After a lot of looking through the bird book, I think this might be a White Rumped Sandpiper (white something back there, anyway).
This bird was very cooperative, but I discovered two things. One is that most sandpipers look very similar and the second is that it's hard to identify a specific bird when his legs and bill are covered in mud!
OK... that's enough for tonight. I'll have more Port A pictures tomorrow -- we saw a lot of species at the bird viewing area! Then it's back to Rockport for more birds! This could take all week.

Wow! You two certainly have been very busy, Stormy. Wonderful pictures as always. :)
Hi Lee,
Yep -- we had a great weekend! Now I need to play catch-up on getting the pics online. There were a lot of good ones, so picking the best is a challenge!
