Description
Sanderlings know how to work with incoming waves like nobody's business. When they're on the beach, they time their digging in the sand almost perfectly in between waves hitting the shore. Just as the wave hits, they run away from the big splash. The technique changes when their feeding on the rocks. They don't run. They fly. This sanderling seemed to understand something that several others in the area did not, that the incoming wave was not going to be big enough to flood his rocky perch. Well done!
