White-rumped Sandpiper, Dunlin, Ruddy Turnstone, and Semipalmated Plover at the El Paso Sewage Treatment Center

On Tuesday, May 26, after work, I returned to the El Paso Sewage Treatment Center yet again. As I approached the Northwest lagoon, I first noticed this pair of Northern Shovelers resting in front of several feeding Semipalmated Sandpipers.



Then I noticed this Dunlin.



The Dunlin was hanging out with a White-rumped Sandpiper.









Here is another photo of the Dunlin by itself.



The Ruddy Turnstone was also still present.









The next day, the turnstone was gone, but the White-rumped Sandpiper, the Dunlin, and the Semipalmated Plover were still present. Here is the White-rumped Sandpiper.







Here is the White-rumped on the left with a Semipalmated Sandpiper on the right.



The white rump for which this bird is named is visible between the wings in this shot.



Here are several shots of the Semipalmated Plover, which continued to entertain.











And finally, here is the remaining Dunlin.
